Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Filling

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and bell peppers. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in shredded chicken, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

2. Assemble the Quesadilla

Place one tortilla in the skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle half of the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese over the tortilla. Add half of the chicken and vegetable mixture on top, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Top with another tortilla.

3. Cook the Quesadilla

Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Carefully flip the quesadilla using a spatula and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the second side is golden and the cheese is melted.

4. Serve

Remove the quesadilla from the skillet. Let it cool for a minute before slicing into wedges. Serve hot with your favorite salsa or sour cream.
