Quesadilla Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with salt and black pepper to taste. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat the Tortilla

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Place one tortilla in the skillet.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese and Filling

    Sprinkle 3/4 cup of cheddar cheese over the tortilla, then add half of the seasoned chicken on top of the cheese.

  4. 4

    Top with More Cheese and Another Tortilla

    Sprinkle another 3/4 cup of cheddar cheese over the chicken, then place the second tortilla on top.

  5. 5

    Cook the Quesadilla

    Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the other side is also golden and the cheese is melted.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet, let cool for a minute, then cut into wedges and serve with your choice of salsa or guacamole.
