This cheeky chicken dinner is so easy to make. For the Portuguese-style dressing, you'll use fresh lemon juice, chilli and vinegar to both marinate your chicken and spice up your mayo dip. Double whammy!

Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ 400°F/ Gas 6
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
Drain and rinse the kidney beans
Heat a pot with a drizzle of olive oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the garlic and cook for 1 min
Add the smoked paprika and ground cumin and cook for 30 sec more
Add the kidney beans with 100ml [150ml] cold water and bring to the boil
Cook for 4-5 min or until the beans are beginning to soften
Meanwhile, trim and finely slice the spring onion[s] and add them to a large mixing bowl
Drain the sweetcorn and add it to the bowl
Grate the cheddar cheese into the bowl, season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and mix thoroughly – this is your sweetcorn mixture
Cut the lime[s] in half
Once the kidney beans are beginning to break down, season with a generous pinch of salt and squeeze in the juice of 1/2 [1] lime
Remove the beans from the heat and mash into a semi-smooth paste – these are your refried beans
Divide the refried beans and sweetcorn mixture between the tortilla wraps, covering only half
Fold each tortilla over and press down firmly so you're left with 6 [12] half moon-shaped sandwiches – these are your quesadillas
Add the quesadillas to a baking tray (or two!)
Place a second baking tray on top to weigh them down slightly
Put the stacked baking trays in the oven for 12 min or until the quesadillas are slightly browned and the cheese is melted
Meanwhile, combine the juice of the remaining lime with 2 tbsp [4 tbsp] olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your salad dressing
Combine the chipotle paste and mayonnaise with 1 tbsp [2 tbsp] olive oil – this is your chipotle mayo
Slice the quesadillas in half
Wash, then dress the baby leaf salad with the dressing
Serve the quesadillas with the salad to the side and the chipotle mayo for dipping
Enjoy!
