Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas
Ingredients
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup bell peppers, diced (any color)
1/4 cup diced onions
1/4 cup salsa (optional)
8 large flour tortillas
2 tbsp butter or olive oil (for cooking)
Sour cream, guacamole, or pico de gallo (for serving)
Directions
Prepare filling: In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, bell peppers, onions, and salsa (if using). Mix well.
Assemble quesadillas: Lay a tortilla flat. Spread a portion of the chicken mixture over half of it, then fold the other half over to form a semi-circle. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Cook quesadillas: Heat butter or olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook each quesadilla for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serve: Cut into wedges and serve warm with sour cream, guacamole, or pico de gallo.
