Layer a tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

Add prosciutto, spinach, and arugula on top of the cheese.

Sprinkle with parmesan cheese, black pepper, and salt.

Top with another tortilla and press down gently.

Remove from heat and let cool for a minute before slicing.

Serve with fresh basil, diced tomatoes, and red onion on the side.

Sprinkle with oregano and red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
