For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the fajita seasoning or include a finely chopped jalapeño with the bell peppers and onion. Experiment with different cheeses! Pepper Jack, Oaxaca, or even a smoky Gouda would be delicious. To prevent soggy quesadillas, avoid overfilling them with the chicken and vegetable mixture. For extra crispy quesadillas, brush the outside of the tortillas with melted butter or oil before baking. Leftover quesadillas can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or a skillet for best results.
