Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions (optional)
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by shredding your cooked chicken. You can use rotisserie chicken for convenience, or cook and shred your own. In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with the buffalo sauce until evenly coated. Adjust the amount of sauce based on your heat preference.
2. Heat the Tortillas: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt a small amount of butter or heat a drizzle of oil. Place one tortilla in the skillet and let it warm up for about a minute.
3. Add the Fillings: Sprinkle a generous layer of cheddar and mozzarella cheese over half of the tortilla. Add a layer of the buffalo chicken mixture on top of the cheese. For added flavor, sprinkle some chopped green onions if desired.
4. Fold and Cook: Fold the tortilla in half to cover the fillings. Cook until the bottom side is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt, about 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook the other side until it's also golden brown and crispy.
5. Serve: Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before cutting it into wedges. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
6. Garnish and Dip: Serve the quesadillas with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping, and garnish with additional green onions if desired.
Tips for the Perfect Quesadilla:
- Cheese Melting: Ensure your cheese is evenly distributed for a consistent melt. A combination of cheddar and mozzarella provides a great balance of flavor and meltability.
- Heat Control: Keep the heat at medium to prevent burning the tortillas while allowing the cheese to melt perfectly.
- Buffalo Sauce: If you prefer a milder flavor, mix the buffalo sauce with a bit of melted butter to tone down the heat.
