Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash and slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. If you haven't already, grill the chicken breast and slice it into thin pieces.

  2. 2

    Fire Roast the Vegetables

    Place the sliced bell peppers and onion on a grill or in a grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook until the vegetables are charred and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

Assembly and Cooking

  1. 3

    Assemble the Quesadillas

    On one half of each flour tortilla, layer 1/2 cup of shredded cheese, followed by 1/2 cup of grilled chicken, and then top with the roasted peppers and onions. Add another 1/2 cup of cheese on top of the vegetables and fold the tortilla over.

  2. 4

    Cook the Quesadillas

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese has melted. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve

    Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve hot with sour cream, salsa, pico de gallo, and jalapeños on the side.
