Directions:

Prepare the Chicken:

Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder.
-
Cook the chicken in a skillet over medium heat with a bit of olive oil until fully cooked. Shred the chicken using two forks.

Cook Vegetables:

In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed. Sauté the chopped onion and sliced bell pepper until softened.

Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Combine Chicken and Vegetables:
-
Add the shredded chicken back into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Mix well and let the flavors combine. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Assemble Quesadillas:
-
Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Spoon a portion of the chicken and vegetable mixture onto one half of the tortilla.
-
Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese over the chicken mixture.
-
Fold the tortilla in half, creating a semi-circle.

Cook Quesadillas:
-
Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat.
-
Place the filled quesadilla onto the hot surface and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
