Instructions

In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken with BBQ sauce, ensuring that the chicken is evenly coated.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush one side of a tortilla with olive oil.

Place the oiled side of the tortilla down in the skillet. On one half of the tortilla, sprinkle a generous amount of cheese, followed by a portion of the BBQ chicken mixture. Top with more cheese and fold the tortilla in half.

Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the other side is crispy.

Continue the process with the remaining tortillas until all are cooked and crispy.

Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve with your choice of garnishes like sour cream, green onions, or avocado.
