Preparation:
- If your cooked chicken was in the refrigerator then warm it up in the microwave for a minute and chop it up into bite sized pieces.
- Using a non-stick frying pan melt a tablespoon of butter over medium high heat making sure the butter gets spread all around the pan.
- Place a tortilla in the pan and spread 1/2 cup of Cheddar Cheese on one half of tortilla
along with the cut up chicken and any other ingredients you want such as chopped green onions, bell peppers, refried beans or sliced black olives.
- Fold over the half of tortilla without the toppings and press down a bit with a spatula.
- Cook on one side until it turns a golden brown and then turn it over with your spatula.
- Lift up a corner of the quesadilla and slip some more butter underneath.
- Cook this side until golden brown and remove from the pan to a plate.
- Cut the Chicken Quesadilla with a knife or a pizza cutting wheel into managable pieces.

Here's a tip: If your salsa was in the refrigerator, then put the salsa in a microwave safe container and heat it up before serving. This way you won't be adding cold salsa to your warm Quesadilla.
