In a medium-sized bowl, combine shredded chicken, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and minced garlic. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly with the sauce.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the coleslaw mix and sautΓ© for 2-3 minutes until just softened. Remove from heat and stir the coleslaw into the chicken mixture. Add the green onions and mix well.
Lay out 2 tortillas on a flat surface. Divide the chicken mixture evenly between the two tortillas, spreading it out in a thin, even layer. Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese over the chicken mixture on each tortilla.
Top each with another tortilla to create a quesadilla sandwich.
Wipe out the skillet and spray it lightly with cooking spray. Heat it over medium heat.
Cook each quesadilla one at a time, carefully placing it in the skillet and cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted. Use a spatula to press down slightly as it cooks.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing it into 4 wedges. Repeat with the second quesadilla.
Serve warm and enjoy your Moo Shu Chicken Quesadillas!
