How to Make Baked Chicken and Veggie Sheet-Pan Quesadilla

This is the basic summary of the easy steps required to make this dish! When you are ready to bake, please see the full instructions below.

1. Arrange the Tortillas

Heat the oven to 400°F. Arrange 6 of the tortillas around the edges of a medium-size baking sheet, so the sides hang off by about 2 inches. Place 1 tortilla in the middle to cover the bottom.

2. Add the Filling

Spread the tortillas with half of the cheese, followed by the chicken and frozen vegetables. Sprinkle with the seasoning mix and remaining cheese.

3. Cover the Quesadilla

Place the last tortilla on top in the middle. Fold the edges of the tortillas over onto the baking sheet to cover the filling. Place a second baking sheet on top to hold the tortillas in place.

4. Bake

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are crispy. Transfer to a serving board. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the quesadilla into eight portions and serve.
