Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    If using leftover cooked chicken, shred it using two forks until fine. If starting with raw chicken, cook it in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked (about 6-8 minutes per side), then let it cool and shred.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Dice the bell pepper into small pieces and slice the green onions. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Skillet

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Quesadilla

    Place one tortilla in the skillet. Evenly spread half of the shredded chicken on top of the tortilla, then add half of the shredded cheese, and top with diced bell pepper and green onions if desired. Place the second tortilla on top.

  3. 5

    Cook the Quesadilla

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

Serving

  1. 6

    Slice and Serve

    Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Cut into wedges and serve with sour cream and salsa on the side.
