Cut up the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and season them with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Toss them into a hot pan and cook until they’re nice and golden.
Set them aside for a bit.
In the same pan, throw in the sweet peppers and mushrooms.
Sauté them until they soften up and start smelling amazing.
Add the chicken back to the pan and pour in the Worcestershire sauce.
Let it simmer for around 5 minutes, so everything soaks up that flavor.
Grab a tortilla and load it up with the filling.
Don’t be shy with the mozzarella, this is what makes it ooey-gooey delicious! Drop another tortilla on top.
Heat a clean, dry pan on medium.
Cook the quesadilla on one side until it’s golden and crispy, then carefully flip it over and do the same on the other side.
Pro tip: If flipping’s not your thing, slide it onto a plate, flip the plate over, and slide it back into the pan.
Cut it into wedges and serve it up with sour cream.
If you’re feeling extra fancy, add some salsa or guac on the side.
Trust me, once you’ve had a bite, you’ll wonder why you didn’t make this sooner. Enjoy the cheesy goodness!
