Ingredients

1 lb chicken breast, sliced
1 bell pepper, sliced
1 onion, sliced
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
8 flour tortillas
2 cups shredded cheese (such as cheddar or Monterey jack)
Optional toppings: salsa, sour cream, guacamole

Instructions

In a large skillet, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, bell pepper, and onion. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink and the vegetables are tender.
In a small bowl, mix the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the mixture over the chicken and vegetables and stir well to coat. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Preheat a separate skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place one tortilla on the skillet and sprinkle with a handful of shredded cheese. Spoon a portion of the chicken and vegetable mixture onto one half of the tortilla. Fold the other half over the filling, creating a half-moon shape. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Slice the quesadillas into wedges and serve hot with your choice of toppings.
