Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes, flour, buttermilk, salt, and baking powder. Mix well until you have a thick batter.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add a small amount of oil. Once the pan is hot, spoon a scoop of the boxty batter onto the pan and spread it out into a thin pancake shape. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter to make more boxty pancakes.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the shredded chicken, diced bell peppers, diced red onions, chopped cilantro, chili powder (optional), salt, and pepper. Toss everything together to evenly distribute the flavors.
  • Take one boxty pancake and sprinkle some shredded cheese over one half of it. Top the cheese with a generous portion of the chicken mixture. Fold the other half of the boxty pancake over the filling, creating a half-moon shape.
  • In a clean non-stick frying pan, add a small amount of oil and heat it over medium heat. Carefully place the filled boxty quesadilla onto the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the cheese is melted and the outside is crispy.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining boxty pancakes and chicken mixture.
  • Once cooked, remove the Chicken Boxty Quesadilla from the pan, and let it cool slightly before serving. You can cut it into wedges or serve it whole.
