CHICKEN QUESIDILLA PINWHEELS WITH “HAVANA DELIGHT”

Says Rachel Ray, the originator of this recipe, these colorful pinwheels make great holiday party snacks, but they're delish any time of year!  Rachel uses Chipotle Salsa in her original 2007 recipe.  We’ve chosen to spice things up with our own Havana Delight dipping sauce.

"Havana Delight": is our Citrus Habanero Olive Oil with our Mango Balsamic Vinegar.  We truly believe it deserves to be bottled and offered tableside at any authentic cantina.  It creates an incredible Vinaigrette. Try it as a marinade too!

4     large flour tortillas (10-12 inch diameter)

2 cups shredded Monterey Jack

1/4 cup chipotle salsa

2 cups chopped rotisserie chicken meat, shredded, still warm from store or warmed in microwave

1 /3 cup Tasteful Additions Citrus Habenero EVOO

2/3 cup Tasteful Additions Mango Balsamic Vinegar

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a flour tortilla and blister it on one side, then turn it over. Scatter cheese on top and cook one minute.

Remove to cutting board. Top the tortilla with a bit of salsa, spreading it gently with the back of a spoon to the edges. Top with 1/2 cup chicken, then roll tortilla into a log. Let stand a minute before cutting. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make a total of four tortilla logs. Cut pinwheels into 1/2-inch slices and arrange on platter.  Drizzle with Havana Delight and get ready to cha cha cha.

Serves 4

*Note:  Short on time but want the heat of Havana this evening?  Use frozen prepared quesadillas and just shake together the EVOO and Vinegar in a cruet (like a dressing) and use as a dipping sauce.  Ay, Carumba!
