Instructions: 

  • Lay the tortilla on a flat surface and smear the hot sauce on one half.
  • Layer on the chopped chicken, tomatoes, herbs, beans, cheese, then fold the tortilla in half over the ingredients. Using your hand, press down on the quesadilla to get the stuffing nice and compact.
  • Place a nonstick pan over medium-high heat and add the canola oil. Once the pan is hot, carefully lay the quesadilla onto the pan and let fry until perfectly golden, around 2-3 minutes. Flip and brown the second side.
  • Remove from pan, slice, and enjoy!!!
