Easy sheet pan quesadillas are a crispy, cheesy, crowd-friendly meal baked all at once on a single sheet pan for maximum convenience and flavor.

Ingredients

  • 810 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or Mexican blend)
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken or ground beef (optional)
  • 1 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup salsa or taco sauce
  • 1/2 cup black beans (optional)
  • 1/2 cup corn (optional)
  • Sour cream, for serving
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 215°C (425°F).
  2. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  3. In a skillet, sauté bell peppers and onions in olive oil until softened. Add chicken or beef if using, then stir in taco seasoning, salsa, black beans, and corn.
  4. Arrange flour tortillas on the sheet pan, overlapping to cover the bottom fully.
  5. Spread the filling mixture evenly over the tortillas and top with shredded cheese.
  6. Fold the overhanging tortilla edges toward the center to enclose the filling.
  7. Place a second sheet pan on top to keep tortillas flat.
  8. Bake for 18–22 minutes, removing the top sheet pan for the final minutes to brown.
  9. Slice into squares and serve with sour cream and cilantro.

Notes

  • Warm corn tortillas first if substituting to prevent cracking.
  • Avoid excess liquid to keep quesadillas crisp.
  • Use a pizza cutter for easy slicing.
  • Prep fillings ahead for faster assembly.
