Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil, diced onion, and bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the shredded chicken and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until heated through. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    On a flat surface, place one tortilla and spread about 1/4 of the chicken mixture on half of the tortilla. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheese on top. Fold the tortilla over to cover the filling.

  3. 3

    Cook the Quesadilla

    In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed, and place the folded quesadilla in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve warm with sour cream and salsa on the side.
