Preheat a skillet over medium-low heat and lightly coat with cooking spray or olive oil.
Place one tortilla on the skillet and add pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, chicken, and basil to one half.
Let the tortilla cook until the cheese begins to melt and the underside starts to brown.
Fold the plain half of the tortilla over the filled side to create a half-moon shape.
Cook for 1 minute, then flip the quesadilla and cook until golden brown and cheese is fully melted.
Remove from skillet, cut into halves or quarters, and serve immediately.

Cover the skillet with a lid during cooking to help the cheese melt faster.
A pizza cutter makes slicing quesadillas easy.
Reheat leftovers on a skillet to restore crispness and remelt the cheese.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freezing not recommended.
