Ingredients
- 8 pieces round naan bread
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 cup diced gyro meat
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1 cup chopped pitted black olives
- 1/2 cup diced red onion
- tzatziki sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Add a bit of olive oil to a large skillet set over medium heat. Spread it out using a pastry brush.
- Add one of the naan breads to the center of the skillet. Spread some of the mozzarella evenly out over the bread, followed by some of the feta. Top with a bit of chicken, tomatoes, olives, and red onion.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted. Sprinkle more mozzarella and feta evenly out overtop, then top with another slice of naan bread.
- Using two spatulas to keep the quesadilla together, carefully flip it over and continue cooking until the cheese has melted and the bottom's golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Transfer the cooked quesadilla to a waiting plate, and continue until all quesadillas have been made.
- Serve warm with tzatziki sauce for dipping and enjoy!

- Depending on the size of the naan bread you're using, you may have to adjust the amounts of ingredients used.
