1
Prepare the Chicken
Season the chicken breast with blackening seasoning and cook it in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing.
2
Sauté Vegetables
In the same skillet, add a little oil if needed and sauté the sliced green bell pepper and onion over medium heat until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5-6 minutes.

3
Assemble
On one half of each flour tortilla, layer the sliced blackened chicken, sautéed green peppers, onions, and sprinkle cheddar cheese on top. Fold the tortillas over to create a half-moon shape.
4
Cook
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each quesadilla for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese has melted. Use a spatula to flip them carefully.

5
Serve with Condiments
Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve them hot with salsa and sour cream on the side.
