Easy Chicken Quesadillas

Easy Chicken Quesadillas

This is one of my personal favorites for 2 reasons- it can be prepared in advanced, and it is so simple to make! Whether it is for guest entertaining, dinner, or picnic, it can be done in no time. Need more excuses to make this? The filling is so versatile you can make it with any kind of meat + cheese!
Ingredients
2 capsicums of different colors, diced
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 can of diced tomato
2 tsp Dried herbs (or use Spanish spice mix)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Oil- to stir fry
Grated cheese
Tortilla
Steps
Stir fry the dried herbs, garlic and capsicum until fragrant, then add in the chicken, stir until the chicken pieces turn white.
Pour the can of tomato in, stir and simmer for 20 minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally to avoid burnt at the bottom. Add the salt and pepper.
When the chicken mixture is done, let it cool down completely.
Place a tortilla on a clean surface, then scoop the chicken mixture to cover the tortilla, and sprinkle the grated cheese generously on top of the meat. Carefully fold the tortilla in half, and press gently to firm it.
In a shallow frying pan, heat a tsp of oil and place the quesadilla on the top, turn the side about 2-3 minutes or until the tortilla skin turns brown and cheese melts.
Slice the quesadilla into 3-4 triangular pieces, and enjoy it hot with some salad, guacamole and salsa.
Tips
The flavor of the mixture really is up to the imagination! I also use curry paste to make this recipe or when I have curry leftover! Still yummy as!
Turn this recipe into a burrito by adding rice and black bean to the tortilla!
Try it now, and everyone on the dining table will love it!

Pork Belly

Punchy Honey-Roasted Pork Belly Recipe

Pork Belly are two words that always excite foodies in New Zealand. Fresh New Zealand pork belly is among the most succulent and flavoursome cuts that pigs offer. An inexpensive fatty cut, pork belly is best prepared with a slow cooking method to lock in moisture and let that rich taste resonate. In our opinion, nothing beats pairing our 1kg or 2kg pork belly cuts with a honey-roasted glaze. Here’s our special pork belly recipe with a piquant punch.


Ingredients

  • 1 kg pork belly (for 2kg cut double other ingredients)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup Mānuka honey 
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Prepare the pork belly by patting it dry with paper towels. Score the skin diagonally in a diamond pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat.
  3. In a small bowl mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, salt and pepper to form a paste. Add in sliced chilli to taste preference.
  4. Rub the spice paste all over the pork belly, ensuring it's evenly coated on all sides.
  5. Place the pork belly on a wire rack set inside a baking tray, with the skin side facing up. This will help the skin crisp up better.
  6. Roast the pork belly in the preheated oven for about 1 hour or until the skin is golden and crispy.
  7. While the pork is roasting, prepare the honey glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the honey, soy sauce and apple cider vinegar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is well combined and slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
  8. After 1 hour of roasting, remove the pork belly from the oven and brush the honey glaze over the top, making sure to cover the entire surface.
  9. Increase the oven temperature to 220°C and return the pork belly to the oven. Roast for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the glaze has caramelised and the skin is crispy and crackling.
  10. Remove the pork belly from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. This will allow the juices to redistribute and ensure the meat is tender.
  11. Slice the honey-roasted pork belly into thick pieces and serve hot. 

Serve with roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables and coleslaw for the tastiest of meals this winter. Order restaurant-quality meat directly to your door today.
