Egg Chicken Quesadilla

Ingredients

  • 1 large low-carb tortilla
  • 170 g egg whites
  • 28 g butter
  • Salt, black pepper, and paprika
  • 85 g low-fat shredded cheese
  • A handful of spinach
  • 170 g cooked chicken breast, sliced

Method

  1. Melt the butter in a large pan over medium induction heat.
  2. Add the egg whites and cook until nearly set.
  3. Lay the tortilla over the eggs and press gently so they adhere.
  4. Flip safely with a wide spatula. Do not invert a hot pan, as suggested in the source recipe.
  5. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Add the cheese, spinach, and cooked chicken to one half.
  6. Fold, press with the spatula, and cook until the cheese melts and the chicken is hot throughout.
  7. Remove, slice, and eat immediately.

Counterbook note

This is sized as one very large serving. Split it if you want a lighter meal.
