# Step-by-Step Guide:

In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded rotisserie chicken, mayonnaise, cheddar cheese, diced pickled jalapeños, and pickled jalapeño juice. Add cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the chicken is evenly coated.

Place one flour tortilla on a flat surface. Spread an even layer of the chicken filling across the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges. Optionally, sprinkle with additional cheese. Top with a second tortilla to cover.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with oil or nonstick spray. Carefully transfer the assembled quesadilla to the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Transfer the cooked quesadilla to a cutting board. Allow to cool for one minute, then cut into wedges. Serve immediately with sour cream combined with salsa or Taco Bell Quesadilla Sauce.
