Quesadilla Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced onion, diced tomato, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Quesadillas

    Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. On half of the tortilla, spread a portion of the chicken mixture, then sprinkle a generous amount of cheddar cheese on top. Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

  3. 3

    Cook the Quesadillas

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place one quesadilla in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove from skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.

  4. 4

    Serve

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