The only thing better than one quesadilla is many quesadillas and with this method, you can feed an entire crowd with very little work. (Or just yourself; don’t discount that option!) Using your oven and a sheet pan, you get wonderfully crispy tortillas this way and you don’t have to stand over a hot stove to get there. You also get a delicious melty filling, of course, but this is versatile enough that you can use this method with whatever filling strikes your fancy!

You start by layering a sheet pan with flour tortillas. You’ll want the ones around the edges to hang halfway over the pan and halfway over the edge. (More on that later.)

And then you line them with lots of delicious things. We’ve got cheese and chicken and salsa verde…

… and then black beans, and green onion, and more cheese.

And then you fold all the tortillas over to close everything in. (You’ll need to place another tortilla or two in the center to cover it all.)

The trick is to brush both the pan and the top of the tortillas with oil, and then put another sheet pan on top of the quesadillas to weigh everything down while it bakes.

That trick in and of itself ensures everything gets nice and crispy, but you also remove the top baking sheet for the last few minutes of baking time to make sure it’s all a beautiful golden brown.

All that’s left to do is slice, serve, and enjoy, and I can promise you that you’ll enjoy these!
