Super easy and simple! So let’s begin this tasty journey.

How To Make Taco Bell Chicken Quesadillas

First, we will start with a list of the basic steps you must follow to make this awesome recipe.

Try to cook your quesadilla in a skillet and you can also cover it with a lid. Cook it over low heat and don’t forget to cover it between flipping it.

You can’t even hear the word quesadila without cheese immediately coming to mind. It’s the most important part for me. Our first impulse is to buy a big bag of shredded cheese. Don’t do it. Instead buy a block of cheese and shred some right before you make your quesadilla. Tastes way better, in my opinion!
