Instructions

Preheat a large non-stick skillet to medium heat. Lightly butter one side of the tortilla with ½ teaspoon of butter and place the tortilla butter side down in the hot pan.

Sprinkle about half the cheese over the tortilla and top with the cooked chicken, bell peppers, and onions. Top with the remaining cheese and sprinkle with cilantro.

Fold the tortilla over on itself and let cook for 2-3 minutes, until the cheese has begun to melt and the bottom tortilla is golden brown.

Carefully flip the folded quesadilla over to cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes. After the quesadilla is golden brown on both sides, use a spatula to transfer it to a cutting board.

Slice it into wedges and serve warm. Repeat as desired for additional servings.
