Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 2 Tbsp taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 2 cups Mexican shredded cheese
- 4 flour tortillas medium size
Instructions
- Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and run the basket with olive oil. If your air fryer does not have a pre-heat option, then run the air fryer for 5 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together the cooked shredded chicken, taco seasoning and salsa until combined.
- Then assemble the quesadillas. Lay a tortilla on a clean work surface. Spread approximately 1/4 of the chicken mixture on one side of the tortilla and top with 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese.
- Fold the tortilla in half and secure the tortilla in place with toothpicks to keep the quesadilla closed while cooking.
- Continue this process until all the quesadillas are assembled.
- Place the quesadillas in the air fryer in a single layer. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Cook the quesadillas in the air fryer for 6 minutes, flipping the quesadillas halfway through the cook time.
- Remove the quesadillas onto a cutting board. Carefully remove the toothpicks. Slice them and then they are ready to serve and enjoy!
