8 flour tortillas, medium size

# Étapes de réalisation:
01 -
In a bowl, stir together the mayo with sour cream, add the jalapeño juice, and toss in the minced jalapeños. Sprinkle in the garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Blend it all together until the mixture is creamy. Taste and tweak the seasoning if needed.
02 -
If it's not shredded, tear your chicken into small pieces. Stir the chicken with some sauce so it's coated evenly, but keep the rest of the sauce aside for dipping later.
03 -
Warm up a skillet over medium. Layer the quesadillas starting with a tortilla, then cheese, followed by the chicken mixture, more cheese, and finish with another tortilla. Heat each side for about a minute until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melting.
04 -
Slice into wedges while they're still hot. Put some of the sauce on the side for dipping and enjoy right away.
