Quesadilla Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all your ingredients: flour tortillas, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, olive oil or butter, and salt.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add olive oil or butter. Allow it to heat until shimmering.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    On one flour tortilla, sprinkle half of the cheddar and half of the Monterey Jack cheese evenly. Add a pinch of salt for flavor, then place the second tortilla on top.

  4. 4

    Cook the Quesadilla

    Carefully transfer the assembled quesadilla to the heated skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown and the cheese starts to melt.

  5. 5

    Flip and Finish Cooking

    Using a spatula, gently flip the quesadilla over and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until it is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.

  6. 6

    Slice and Serve

    Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool slightly. Cut it into wedges and serve immediately with chips and salsa on the side.
