These quesadillas are so easy to make and they're always a hit with my kids. I love that I can use leftover chicken to make them.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my quesadillas didn't turn out as good as the picture. The chicken was dry and the cheese didn't melt properly.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The quesadillas were still delicious.

These quesadillas were amazing! I used a mix of mozzarella and cheddar cheese and they were so gooey and delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the quesadillas were a disaster. The chicken was dry and the cheese didn't melt. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken quesadillas, but these were surprisingly good. The chipotle sauce added a nice smoky flavor.

These quesadillas were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll probably make them again with less chili powder next time.

The recipe was easy to follow and the quesadillas turned out great. I used a rotisserie chicken to save time and they were still delicious.
