Toss the chicken strips with the taco seasoning. Coat a 12-inch nonstick skillet with half the cooking spray and set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the lime juice, then remove the chicken from the skillet and wipe it clean. Done when cooked through, 165°F.
Apply the remaining cooking spray to the skillet over medium heat. Place the tortilla in the skillet. Sprinkle half the mozzarella over one half of the tortilla, top with the cooked chicken, and cover with the remaining mozzarella. Fold the tortilla over to close. Press down with a spatula and cook until the bottom is golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until the other side is golden and the cheese is melted, about 2 more minutes. Done when cheese is melted.
Transfer the quesadilla to a cutting board and let it rest for 1 minute. Slice into wedges and garnish with cilantro. Serve with the salsa for dipping.
