Instructions
Prepare the Filling
Season the shredded chicken lightly with salt and stir to combine. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush lightly with olive oil. Lay one flour tortilla flat in the pan.
Assemble and Cook
Sprinkle a quarter of the shredded cheese evenly over one half of the tortilla, then top the cheese with a quarter of the shredded chicken. Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the filling to create a half moon shape. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy.
Flip and Finish
Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2 minutes until the second side is golden and the cheese is fully melted. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 1 minute before slicing into wedges with a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
