# How to Make It:
01 - Combine shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, honey, hot sauce, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir thoroughly until chicken is evenly coated. Set aside to allow flavors to meld.
02 - Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced red onions and chopped bell peppers. Sauté for approximately 5 minutes until vegetables are softened and lightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
03 - Place a tortilla on a clean surface. Sprinkle half of one side with cheddar and mozzarella cheese blend. Layer BBQ chicken mixture over cheese, top with sautéed vegetables, and finish with fresh cilantro.
04 - Fold the tortilla in half to create a half-moon shape, pressing gently to seal the filling inside.
05 - Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place filled tortilla in the pan and cook for 3 minutes on each side until tortilla is golden brown and crispy, and cheese is completely melted.
06 - Remove quesadilla from skillet and let rest for 1-2 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve immediately with optional sour cream, guacamole, and lime wedges.
07 - Continue assembling and cooking remaining tortillas with the remaining filling. Serve warm while cheese is still melted.
