Recipe Summary Buffalo Chicken Quesadillas

This is an easy way to serve up a quick dinner with a lot of flavor! No need to use oil or butter to toast each side of the quesadilla, but you can if you'd like. I prefer a dry heat. Tortillas made with a corn-flour mixture work best. Serve with either Buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, or sour cream!

Ingredients | Buffalo Chicken Burritos

1 pound chicken tenders

½ tablespoon olive oil

1 shallot, diced

2 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature

¼ cup ranch dressing

⅛ cup Buffalo sauce

salt and ground black pepper to taste

½ (1 inch) cube shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese

½ cup shredded Gouda cheese

8 (6 inch) tortillas, or more as needed

Directions

Place chicken tenders into a medium-sized pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce temperature to medium-low and simmer until chicken tenders are cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain chicken tenders. Transfer to a cutting board and cut or shred as desired.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook shallot until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Combine cream cheese, ranch dressing, Buffalo sauce, and cooked shallots in a bowl; mix until creamy. Add cooked chicken and season with salt and pepper.

Spread Buffalo chicken mixture onto a tortilla and top with Colby-Monterey Jack cheese and Gouda cheese. Cover with a second tortilla and set quesadilla aside. Repeat with remaining tortillas, chicken mixture, and cheese.

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 quesadilla and cook until browned on 1 side, about 3 minutes. Carefully flip and cook until tortilla is crisp and cheese is melted, about 3 more minutes. Repeat with remaining quesadillas.
