Air Fryer Chicken Quesadilla is filled with juicy chicken and melty cheddar cheese. Pair this quesadilla with homemade avocado yogurt dip!
Ingredients for the quesadilla:
Ingredients for the avocado yogurt dip:
Add chicken breast to a bowl and coat in avocado oil and spices.
Heat a pan to medium. Place the chicken into the pan and cook about 4-6 minutes per side or until the chicken's temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes. Then, dice the chicken.
Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees F. Place one tortilla on a cutting board. Add cheese and chicken to one side of the tortilla. Fold it over and secure it with 3 wooden toothpicks. Place the quesadilla in the air fryer basket.
Air fry at 350 degrees F for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway. When you flip the tortilla at the halfway point, remove the toothpicks. Make the second quesadilla when the first one is done. If you have a large enough air fryer, cook both of them at the same time.
Next, make avocado yogurt dip. Mash avocado with yogurt, lime juice, smoked paprika and salt. Lastly, fold in freshly chopped cilantro.
Cut the quesadillas and serve them with the dip and any other desired toppings such as salsa.
