Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Taco seasoning
• 4 pieces Large flour tortillas
• 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1.5 cups Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 0.5 cup Diced tomatoes
• 0.25 cup Chopped green onions
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 cup Guacamole (optional)
• 0.5 cup Salsa (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with taco seasoning on all sides.

Step 3

Cook the chicken breasts in the skillet for 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Step 4

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.

Step 5

Place one flour tortilla on the skillet. Sprinkle 1/4 of the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese evenly over half of the tortilla.

Step 6

Layer sliced chicken strips, diced tomatoes, green onions, and cilantro on top of the cheese layer. Sprinkle another 1/4 of the cheese mixture on top to create a gooey, melty layer.

Step 7

Fold the tortilla in half, pressing gently with a spatula to seal ingredients inside.

Step 8

Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.

Step 9

Transfer cooked quesadilla to a cutting board and let cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing into triangles.

Step 10

Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Step 11

Serve hot with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa on the side for dipping.
