Making Mini Chicken Quesadillas is a fun and delicious process! Follow these steps to create your flavorful snack:
1. Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken, cheese, taco seasoning, bell pepper, and onion until well combined.
2. Heat a Skillet: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or a little olive oil.
3. Assemble Quesadillas: Place one tortilla in the skillet and spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto half of the tortilla.
4. Fold: Fold the tortilla in half over the filling, pressing down gently.
5. Cook: Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown, then carefully flip and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until crispy.
6. Repeat: Remove the cooked quesadilla and place it on a cutting board. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
7. Slice: Once all quesadillas are cooked, slice them into triangles.
8. Serve: Arrange on a platter with your choice of salsa, sour cream, or guacamole on the side.
