Quesadilla Filling

Sides

Method

Preparation of Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell pepper and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until softened. Season with salt, black pepper, and cumin.

  2. 2

    Combine Filling Ingredients

    In a bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables with the cooked chicken or beef and shredded cheese. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of ingredients.

Cooking the Quesadilla

  1. 3

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    Place one flour tortilla on a clean surface. Spread half of the filling mixture on one half of the tortilla, then fold the other half over the filling.

  2. 4

    Cook the Quesadilla

    In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if necessary and heat over medium heat. Carefully place the filled quesadilla in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  3. 5

    Repeat

    Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool slightly. Repeat the process with the second tortilla and remaining filling.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Quesadilla

    Cut the quesadillas into wedges and place them on a serving plate. Serve alongside a portion of Spanish rice, topped with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and a dollop of sour cream.
