Cook the Chicken: Season the chicken with cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side until fully cooked through. Shred the chicken once it’s done and set it aside.

Sauté Veggies (Optional): In the same pan, sauté diced onions and bell peppers until soft and slightly caramelized.

Prepare the Quesadilla Filling: In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken, sautéed veggies (if using), and shredded cheese.

Assemble the Quesadilla: Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add a small amount of oil or butter. Place one tortilla in the pan, then add the chicken and cheese mixture on top. Place another tortilla on top and press down gently.

Cook and Flip:Cook the quesadilla for 3-4 minutes on one side, until golden and crispy. Flip carefully and cook the other side until crispy and golden as well. Remove from the pan and slice into wedges.

Serve: Serve with salsa, guacamole, or sour cream, and enjoy your delicious homemade chicken quesadillas!
