Quesadilla Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Sauté the onions and bell peppers until they are soft. Add the cooked chicken, and season with salt and black pepper. Stir until heated through.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    On one half of each tortilla, sprinkle a generous amount of cheese, followed by the chicken and vegetable filling. Top with more cheese before folding the tortilla over.

  3. 3

    Cook the Quesadilla

    In the same skillet, place the folded quesadilla. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese has melted. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with sour cream and salsa on the side.
