Chicken quesadillas are a crowd-pleasing meal that's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner.

With just a few ingredients and some basic cooking skills, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal in no time.

– 2 cups shredded roasted chicken – 1 cup shredded cheese (Mexican blend or cheddar) – 1/2 cup diced onion – 1/4 cup chopped cilantro – 4 large flour tortillas – 2 tbsp olive oil – Salsa, sour cream, or guacamole (optional)

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded roasted chicken, shredded cheese, diced onion, and chopped cilantro. Mix well.

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Place one flour tortilla in the skillet and spoon a quarter of the chicken and cheese mixture onto one half of the tortilla.

Fold the other half of the tortilla over the filling, creating a half-moon shape.

Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side, until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted.

Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and chicken mixture.

Serve hot with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole if desired.
