Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, ground cumin, and garlic powder. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing.
Sauté Vegetables
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion, and sauté for about 5-6 minutes until they are tender.
Assemble the Quesadilla
On one half of each tortilla, layer sliced chicken, sautéed vegetables, and shredded cheese. Fold the other half of the tortilla over the filling.
Serve
Remove from the skillet, cut into wedges, and serve with sour cream and salsa on the side.
