Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chicken breasts and sprinkle with taco seasoning. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before shredding the chicken.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    On one half of each tortilla, layer shredded chicken and cheddar cheese. Fold the tortillas over to create a half-moon shape.

  3. 3

    Cook the Quesadilla

    In the same skillet, cook the quesadillas over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese has melted.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut quesadillas into wedges and serve warm with guacamole and crema fresca on the side.
