Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once heated, add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the shredded chicken to the skillet along with salt and black pepper. Mix everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the chicken is heated through.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Quesadillas

    On a clean surface, lay out 2 flour tortillas. Evenly distribute the chicken and vegetable mixture on one half of each tortilla. Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the top of the filling.

  4. 4

    Cook the Quesadillas

    Fold the tortillas in half over the filling. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Place the folded quesadillas in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool for a minute before cutting them into wedges. Serve warm with sour cream, salsa, and chopped cilantro on the side.
