Ingredients
- 2 Large flour tortillas
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 12 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 0.25 cup Pizza sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Brush one side of each tortilla lightly with olive oil. Place one tortilla, oiled side down, onto the skillet.
Step 3
Spread pizza sauce evenly over the tortilla in the skillet, leaving about 1/2 inch of space around the edge.
Step 4
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, ensuring even coverage.
Step 5
Layer pepperoni slices on top of the cheese. Add more if desired.
Step 6
Sprinkle dried Italian seasoning over the pepperoni for added flavor.
Step 7
Place the second tortilla on top of the layered ingredients with the oiled side facing up.
Step 8
Cook the quesadilla for 3-4 minutes until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and slightly crispy. Use a spatula to press down gently to help the cheese melt and stick the layers together.
Step 9
Carefully flip the quesadilla using the spatula and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 10
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing.
Step 11
Cut the quesadilla into wedges and serve immediately. Optionally, serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping.
