Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and bell peppers, and sauté until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Assemble Quesadilla

    On one half of each tortilla, layer shredded chicken, sautéed vegetables, and shredded cheese. Fold the other half of the tortilla over the filling.

  3. 3

    Cook Quesadilla

    In the same skillet, place the folded quesadilla and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese has melted.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve hot with sour cream, salsa, and guacamole on the side.
