Cook the Quesadilla
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy. Carefully flip the quesadilla and add the remaining olive oil if needed, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden and the cheese is melted.

Serve
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing it into wedges. Serve hot with shoe string fries on the side.
