How to Make Kickn Quesadillas

  1. Lay out your tortillas on a clean surface.
  2. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheese evenly over one half of each tortilla.
  3. Add your desired fillings (cooked chicken/beef, onions, and bell peppers) on top of the cheese.
  4. Drizzle 1/2 teaspoon of hot sauce over the filling (on each tortilla).
  5. Fold the other half of the tortilla over the filling to create a half-moon shape.
  6. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a little oil or butter if desired.
  7. Place the quesadillas in the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
  8. Remove from the skillet, cut into wedges, and garnish with fresh cilantro (optional) before serving immediately.
