Cooking Instructions

If making the Barbecue Sauce, combine the Ketchup (1/3 cup) , Apple Cider Vinegar (4 Tbsp) , Brown Sugar (2 Tbsp) , Paprika (1 Tbsp) , Ground Cumin (1 Tbsp) , Salt (to taste) , and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) into a small saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.

Once boiled, simmer the sauce on low for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. If using premade sauce, microwave for 30 seconds on heat function P8 (or at 800W).

In a separate bowl, combine the barbecue sauce and Rotisserie Chicken (1) .

Fill and spread 4 Flour Tortillas (8) with the barbecue chicken filling, leaving at least 1-inch of space from the edge. Sprinkle Shredded Cheese (1 cup) over each filled tortilla and top with a second tortilla to form the quesadillas.

Toast each quesadilla in the microwave on the GRILL function (or at 1100W) on high heat for 5 minutes.

Chop the quesadillas into triangles and serve with Guacamole (1 cup) , Chunky Salsa (1 cup) , Sour Cream (1 cup) , and Fresh Cilantro (to taste) . Cooking results may vary depending on microwave oven use.
