Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and lightly coat with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Combine chicken, onion, and taco seasoning in a skillet over medium and cook until onions are soft and chicken is cooked through. Remove from heat.
- Spoon ½ cup chicken mixture onto each tortilla. Sprinkle all over with about ¼ cup cheese. Fold tortilla in half to make a quesadilla; place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas, meat and cheese. Brush tops of tacos with remaining oil.
- Bake tacos in the preheated oven, flipping halfway through, until lightly browned, toasted, and crisp around the edges, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk sour cream, honey, chili powder, lime juice, and cayenne together in a bowl until well combined.
- Serve quesadillas with hot honey dip and fresh cilantro.
