Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas

Easy Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas are super easy and very satisfying.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 6 flour tortillas
  • 2 (9-ounce) packages cooked diced chicken
  • 1 cup shredded Colby cheese
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 cup salsa

Preparation:

Place three tortillas on work surface. Top with half of cheese, then chicken, then remaining cheese. Top with remaining tortillas. Spread outsides with butter.

Heat a pan or griddle over medium heat. Add quesadillas, one at a time, and cook, pressing down with a spatula, until bottoms are browned, about 2-4 minutes. Turn quesadillas and cook second side 2-3 minutes. Remove to work surface and cut into quarters. Repeat with remaining quesadillas. Serve with salsa for dipping. Serves 3-4
