Preparation
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil.
- Crack the egg into the pan and cook sunny-side up or over easy, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Remove the egg carefully once the whites are set but the yolk remains runny.
Assembling the Quesadilla
- Lay one tortilla flat and sprinkle half the shredded cheeses evenly over one half.
- Season the cheese lightly with salt and pepper.
- Place the cooked egg on top of the cheese-covered half.
- Fold the tortilla over the egg to create a half-moon shape.
Cooking the Quesadilla
- Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and add butter or oil.
- Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and press down gently with a spatula.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy.
- Carefully flip and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted.
- Remove from heat and let rest for a minute before slicing.
Serving
- Cut the quesadilla into wedges using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
- Serve warm with optional toppings like salsa, sour cream, avocado, or cilantro.
