Prepare Ingredients
Shred the cheese and any cooked beef or chicken you wish to add. Dice the tomato and shred the lettuce. Set aside the garnishes.
Cooking
Assemble Quesadilla
Place one flour tortilla in the skillet. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly on top. If using, add a layer of shredded beef or chicken, then top with the remaining cheese. Finally, place another tortilla on top.
Cook Quesadilla
Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt. Carefully flip the quesadilla over and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Slice and Serve
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Cut into wedges and serve with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and a dollop of sour cream on the side.
