Serves 6
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes

BEER PAIRING
Pair with a Belgian-Style Witbier like Blue Moon® Belgian White
The sweetness and subtle spice in Blue Moon® Belgian White, and its brisk carbonation, cut through the cheese and avocado to really refresh the palate after each yummy bite.
One of the easiest appetizers to whip up is a quesadilla. These chicken and avocado quesadillas feature rotisserie chicken, fresh avocado and a homemade pico de gallo. Pair it with the citrus and spice of orange peel and coriander in Blue Moon® Belgian White to amplify the flavor of the rotisserie chicken in the quesadilla and complement the pico de gallo.
