Great recipe for (Better Than) Taco Bell Quesadilla Copycat. I found the popular copycat recipe that everyone seems to be using and/or posting and tried it, but I found the quesadilla sauce to be too sweet and heavy on the cumin so I adjusted amounts to my liking and thought it was much closer. Taco Bell's quesadilla sauce is creamy, full of flavor, a little tangy, and just spicy enough (not to mention downright delicious). Even better, it's so easy to make with standard pantry ingredients.

Instructions to make Copy Cat Taco Bell Chicken Quesadillas:

1. Combine all the ingredients for the sauce and let sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
2. Season chicken with taco seasoning on both sides and pan fry in olive oil until cooked through. Remove from heat and chop into smaller pieces.
3. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
4. One at a time, place a tortilla in preheated skillet and sprinkle 1/2 of the tortilla with both of the shredded cheeses and 1/2 of the American slice. (I usually eyeball this because I tend to like mine on the cheesier side)
5. Place about 1/4 cup of chopped chicken on the same half as the cheese.
6. On the empty side of the tortilla spread the sauce. I use about 1 1/2 tablespoons (that's the best part of a Taco Bell Quesadilla and they NEVER put enough on!!!).
7. Fold the quesadilla over in 1/2 and pat down with a spatula.
8. Flip quesadilla over once to ensure both sides get crisped up.
9. Cook until the cheese is melted. Cut into 4 pieces and enjoy.
