This dish is a perfect combination of tender chicken, black beans, and melted cheese, all wrapped in a crispy tortilla.

To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 large flour tortilla
- 1/2 cup shredded cooked chicken
- 1/4 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon lime juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
To start, preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Lay the tortilla flat in the skillet and sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on one side of the tortilla. Add the cooked chicken and black beans on top of the cheese. Sprinkle the remaining cheese and chopped cilantro on top of the chicken and beans. Fold the tortilla in half and press down gently with a spatula.
Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crispy and golden brown. While the quesadilla is cooking, prepare the cilantro lime sour cream by mixing the sour cream, lime juice, and chopped cilantro in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once the quesadilla is cooked, remove it from the skillet and cut it into wedges. Serve the quesadillas hot with a dollop of cilantro lime sour cream on top.
