Description

These crispy, melty quesadillas combine spicy buffalo sauce with gooey cheese and tender rotisserie chicken, all wrapped in golden-brown tortillas for a quick and satisfying meal.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1/3 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing
  • Optional: diced celery for extra crunch


Instructions

  1. Place the shredded rotisserie chicken in a bowl and toss with buffalo wing sauce until evenly coated.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter.
  3. Place one tortilla in the skillet, sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese over it, and layer half of the buffalo chicken mixture on top.
  4. Add another 1/2 cup of cheese, and place a second tortilla on top; press gently.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, then flip and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Let the quesadilla rest for 1 minute before slicing into wedges.
  7. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  8. Serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing and garnish with sliced green onions.
