These vibrant chicken and mushroom quesadillas offer a sophisticated twist on a classic Mexican-inspired favourite. By roasting succulent chicken thighs with earthy mushrooms and fresh spinach, this recipe creates a deeply savoury filling that pairs beautifully with melted Monterey Jack cheese. The dish is elevated by a zesty carrot and mango slaw, providing a crunchy, tropical contrast to the warm, toasted tortillas.
As a high-protein meal choice, this recipe is perfect for a nutritious midweek dinner or a satisfying weekend lunch. The homemade coriander yoghurt sauce adds a cooling, creamy finish that ties all the flavours together. For a time-saving tip, both the roasted filling and the yoghurt dressing can be prepared in advance, making this an ideal option for those seeking a fresh, healthy, and efficient meal-prep solution.

How to make Chicken and Mushroom Quesadillas with Carrot and Mango Slaw
Volver al contenidoPreheat oven to 218°C. Stir cumin, 3 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl. Add chicken and mushrooms and toss to coat. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 74°C, 15–17 minutes.
Meanwhile, juice limes to yield 90ml juice. Blend yoghurt, 45ml lime juice, and 45ml coriander in a blender until smooth.
Shave carrots with a vegetable peeler lengthwise into ribbons (or use the large holes of a box grater). Whisk 1 tablespoon oil and remaining 3 tablespoons lime juice, 1/4 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl. Add carrots and mango; toss gently to coat.
Remove baking sheet from oven, arrange spinach over chicken, and continue to roast until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes. Transfer chicken to a cutting board, leaving spinach on sheet, and thinly slice.
Arrange tortillas on a work surface. Dividing evenly, layer cheese, chicken, mushrooms, and spinach on one side of each tortilla. Fold tortillas in half to create half-moons.
Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-low until hot. Cook 2 quesadillas, turning once, until cheese is melted and tortillas are browned, 1–2 minutes per side. Transfer quesadillas to serving plates, then cook remaining quesadillas with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil.
Sprinkle quesadillas with coriander leaves and serve with yoghurt sauce and carrot-mango slaw alongside.
Chicken and mushrooms can be cooked and yoghurt sauce can be made 4 days ahead; cover and chill.
