Speedy Gringo Chicken & Corn Quesadilla
I needed to go shopping so created a speedy quesadilla based on what I had available in my fridge/freezer & larder. The result is a tasty, spicy quesadilla filled with chicken, corn, jalapenos and cheese. Serve with usual mexican accompanients or eat on its own. Makes 4 small quarters, enough for 1 or for 2 with sides.
