Ingredients
- 1 8 -10" flour tortilla
- 1 teaspoon butter
- ⅓ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Colby jack, Pepper jack, or Mexican cheese blend all work well)
- 2 slices black forest ham (chopped into ½-inch pieces, about ¼ cup)
- sour cream, ranch dressing, or salsa (for serving)
Steps
-
Warm a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly butter a single side of one tortilla with butter and place it in the hot pan. Sprinkle about 3 tablespoons of cheese on half of the tortilla, top with ham and the remaining cheese.
-
Fold the tortilla over on itself and let it cook for 2-3 minutes. When the cheese has begun to melt and the bottom tortilla is browning slightly, flip the folded quesadilla over to cook the other side.
-
Continue to cook until all the cheese has melted and the tortilla is crisp around the edges and deeply golden brown. Using a spatula, transfer the quesadilla back to a cutting board and cut it into wedges while hot. Serve warm.
