Sweet & Spicy Chicken Quesadilla

So my husband and I love BBQ Chicken Quesadillas but when I came across this recipe for an amazing hot sauce we had to give it a try in our quesadilla's and let me tell you were they a hit or what! Give them a try I'm sure you'll love em! This dish is perfect for an appetizer at a party or a get together like the Super Bowl thats this coming Sunday.

Recipe:
For the Sauce:
1 cup Franks Hot Sauce
1 1/2 cups Brown Sugar
1/4 cup water
2 Tbsp. Honey

For the quesadilla:
2-3 chicken breasts (cooked and shredded)
2 green onions (diced)(optional)
1 4oz can diced green chilis (optional)
1-2 roma tomatos (diced)(optional)
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese of choice (we prefer cheddar or monterey jack)
8 Burrito sized tortillas

Heat a griddle or skillet to medium heat. Take 1/4 cup of sauce and mix in with the shredded chicken. (You can always add more if you would like) Next, spray cooking side of tortilla with cooking spray. Sprinkle cheese on tortilla, then layer the chicken, onions, green chili's, and tomatoes and top with other tortilla. Lightly spray top of that tortilla also to help with the cooking process. When finished, slice into 4 parts and serve with sour cream and salsa. (Note- the sauce makes quite a bit, so if your only planning on using it for this recipe I would suggest cutting it in half. We like to use the leftovers for breaded chicken breasts or chicken wings)
