Assemble the Quesadilla
Place one flour tortilla on a clean surface. Spread half of the cheese evenly on one half of the tortilla. Top with the chicken and vegetable mixture, then sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top. Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling.

Cook the Quesadilla
In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, or until golden brown. Carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crispy.
