How to Make Barbecue Chicken Quesadillas
- Sauté 1/2 medium onion, chopped, and 1/2 bell pepper (any color), chopped, in a pan with 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, heat 2 cups of shredded cooked chicken with 1/4 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce over medium-low heat until warmed through.
- Lightly butter one side of each large flour tortilla.
- Place the buttered side of a tortilla in a lightly oiled large skillet over medium heat.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese) onto one half of the tortilla.
- Top the cheese with 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture and 1/4 of the sautéed vegetables.
- Fold the tortilla in half to form a semi-circle.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
- Repeat steps 5-9 with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
- Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve immediately with extra barbecue sauce for dipping.
