homemade quesadillas?

Im making them tonight with chicken and cheese etc. I have the soft tortilla shells...ive never made them before. Do i just put it in a pan and cook it plain, or should i put a little oil in the pan? I want them to get a little crispy on the shells

man i hook UP some quesadillas at home!!

you could put a little oil but they get crispy without it, honestly.

I spread a little butter on the outside of the tortilla, then throw it in the pan. It gets it crispy.

Chicken, Cheese and Pico De Gallo, dipped in sour cream after they're done.

i just spray a little pam in the pan, also my sauce for the inside i use 1 cup salsa, some miracle whip and a teaspoon of chili powder.

What is pico de gallo? ive heard of it but i cant think of what it is. I am using a rotisserie chicken for the chicken because they are so delicious. And just using shredded cheese and sprinkle some salsa in the middle then gonna dip it in sour cream.

i sprinkle green peppers in mine too.

i was going to do that but i was trying to save money so i didnt get any of those. and i wanted onion too  

if i heat them on medium heat how long do you think it should take on both sides? im afraid ill burn them.

I use a non stick pan so I don't need to add any oil or butter.

I always add chicken,m cheese, sauted peppers and onions and I make a sauce out of jalapeno juice, cumin powder, cayenne pepper and mayo and spread it on the inside of the tortilla shell.

Tomato, Onion and cilantro.

I bake mine in the oven and do like a quesadilla casserole deal. I rub a little nonstick spray on the bottom of two tortillas and put them side by side in a dish. Then i put shredded chicken, precooked bacon, shredded cheese, and a little bit of hotsauce on top of the tortilas. Then i add two more tortillas on top of that,side by side, and repeat the ingredients. Then i add another layer of two tortillas, side by side and rub a little nonstick spray on the top of those two, and add shredded cheese only to the top. Usually about 30 mins at 350 degrees and theyre good to go, sometimes i leave it in longer if the cheese isnt melted to my liking. Then i just cut the "casserole" into rectangles and serve it with sour cream, salsa, and nacho cheese. Its a lot less messy IMO and u can make enough for the family all at once instead of quesadilla after quesadilla.

just use a nonstick pan and keep kinda looking at them. they shouldnt burn burn...usually about a couple mins on each side does it for me on med-high heat but you dont wanan do it too fast cause you wanna melt the cheese.
