→ Main Ingredients
01 -
2 slices thick-cut bacon
02 -
2 large eggs
03 -
1/8 teaspoon salt
04 -
Pinch of black pepper
05 -
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
06 -
1 large burrito-size flour tortilla
07 -
1/3 cup shredded cheese, Mexican cheese blend or medium cheddar
# Steps:
01 -
Heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook bacon slices until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate and allow to cool. Chop bacon into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
02 -
Wipe out the pan with paper towels. In a small bowl, whisk eggs until uniformly pale yellow. Season with salt and black pepper.
03 -
Return the skillet to medium heat and add butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan. Pour in the whisked eggs and cook undisturbed for about 1 minute.
04 -
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly over the eggs. Place the flour tortilla directly on top of the eggs and cheese, pressing gently. Continue cooking for an additional minute.
05 -
Carefully flip the tortilla so the eggs are now on top. Sprinkle the remaining cheese and the chopped bacon evenly over the eggs.
06 -
Fold the tortilla in half to enclose the filling. Cook until the cheese is melted and both sides of the quesadilla are golden brown.
07 -
Transfer to a cutting board, slice into triangles, and serve immediately.
# Notes:
01 -
Use a spatula to gently flip the tortilla for best results. For extra flavor, serve with salsa or hot sauce.
