Teriyaki and Pineapple Quesadillas
Picture a golden, cheesy tortilla filled with tender shredded chicken drizzled in teriyaki sauce, supercharged by sweet pineapple tidbits. It’s a delightful dance of savory, sweet, and tangy—all wrapped up with crisp green peppers and zippy red onions. Served with a creamy sriracha‑honey mayo on the side, these quesadillas bring a fun and breezy tropical twist to a classic American favorite. Totally easy, totally tasty.
