Quesadilla Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with salt and pepper to taste. If using cheese only, skip this step.

  2. 2

    Assemble Quesadilla

    On a clean surface, place one tortilla down. Spread an even layer of shredded cheese (or chicken mixture) on one half of the tortilla, then fold the other half over.

  3. 3

    Cook the Quesadilla

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  4. 4

    Repeat

    Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas and filling, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.

  5. 5

    Serve

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