Gather @chicken breast{400%g}, @ground cumin{0.5%tsp}, @olive oil{2%tbsp}, @flour tortilla{4} and @cheddar cheese{200%g}.

Season the chicken with @chili powder{1%tsp}, cumin and @salt{}. Heat half the oil in a skillet over medium-high and cook the chicken, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 7 minutes. ~{7%minutes}

Remove the chicken and add the @bell pepper{1} and @onion{1} to the same pan; cook until softened and lightly charred, about 5 minutes. ~{5%minutes}

Return the chicken to the pan and toss with the peppers off the heat.

Lay a tortilla flat, scatter cheese over one half, add a quarter of the chicken mixture, more cheese on top, and fold the tortilla over.

Wipe out the skillet, add a little oil, and cook each folded quesadilla over medium heat until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes per side. ~{6%minutes}

Cut each into wedges and serve hot with @sour cream{60%ml} and @lime{1}.
