Method
Preparation
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all the ingredients and ensure the cheeses are shredded and ready to use. If using jalapeños, slice them thinly.
Cooking
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil or butter over medium heat until melted.
Add the Second Tortilla
Top with a second tortilla and press down gently.
Cook the Quesadilla
Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt. Carefully flip the quesadilla using a spatula.
Finish Cooking
Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side until it is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Slice and Serve
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Cut into wedges and serve with sour cream and salsa on the side.
