Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Ingredients

    Gather all your ingredients. Slice the bell pepper and onion, shred or dice the cooked chicken, and measure out the cheese.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    Add the sliced bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Cooking the Quesadilla

  1. 4

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    On a clean flat surface, place one tortilla. Spread half of the shredded cheese evenly over the tortilla, followed by half of the sautéed vegetables and half of the chicken. Top with another tortilla.

  2. 5

    Toast the Quesadilla

    In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Carefully place the assembled quesadilla in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.

  3. 6

    Flip and Cook

    Using a spatula, carefully flip the quesadilla and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  4. 7

    Remove and Cut

    Once cooked, remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Cut into wedges.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve
