- Carefully take the filled tortilla and place it onto the heated skillet.
- Cook each side for about 1 to 2 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Let each BBQ Chicken Cheese Quesadilla cool on a wire rack for a minute and cut them up to your preferred portions. Enjoy with a side of fruits, chips or even a bowl of fresh salad.
