Ensure you have all the essentials: flour tortillas, shredded cheese, cooked chicken or your preferred filling, diced vegetables, and seasoning.

In a pan, sauté the diced vegetables until they’re tender. Add chicken to the pan, and season everything with salt, pepper, and cumin. Cook until the filling is well-mixed and heated through.

Place a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Warm the tortillas on the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until they become pliable and slightly toasted.

Lay one tortilla flat and evenly spread a generous amount of shredded cheese across the surface. Add a layer of the cooked filling, then sprinkle more cheese on top. Place another tortilla on top to cover the filling.

Carefully transfer the assembled quesadilla to the heated skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

Use a large spatula to flip the quesadilla carefully. If needed, hold the top tortilla in place while flipping to keep the filling from spilling out. Cook until both sides are crisp and golden.

Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice it into wedges. The cheese should be gooey and the filling evenly distributed.

Serve your quesadilla hot, topped with your favourite additions like salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or chopped cilantro for an extra burst of flavour.
