Chicken and Brie Quesadillas with Chipotle Salsa

This is a really nice quesadilla to serve as an appetizer or a for a light meal. The brie gives them a really creamy texture and the chipotle salsa gives a nice smoky kick.

 "It's wonderful! I didn't have some of the ingredients so I left out the green chillies and adobo I just added diced chicken red chillies garlic lime juice, fresh lime, onion and coriander an a dash of salt, perfect for on top of a salad and I put mine in a baguette with melted brie cheese!!! Thanks" - Childevlin
