Instructions

1. Make the Creamy Jalapeño Sauce:
   In a small bowl, mix all sauce ingredients until smooth. Chill for at least 30 minutes (if you can wait that long!).

2. Assemble the Quesadilla:
   Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Spread a thin layer of the sauce on one side of a tortilla.
   Sprinkle with shredded cheese and chicken, then top with another layer of cheese. Place the second tortilla on top.

3. Cook:
   Lightly butter the skillet and cook the quesadilla 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy, and the cheese is melted inside.

4. Slice & Serve:
   Let it cool slightly, slice into wedges, and serve with extra sauce, salsa, or guacamole!
