Quick and flavorful Buffalo chicken quesadillas served with your choice of Buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, or sour cream.
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound chicken tenders
  • 0.5 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 shallot, diced
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 0.25 cup ranch dressing
  • 0.125 cup Buffalo sauce
  • 0.5 (1 inch) cube shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese
  • 0.5 cup shredded Gouda cheese
  • 8 (6 inch) tortillas, or more as needed
Instructions:
  • In a medium pot, submerge chicken tenders in water and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until fully cooked, around 6 to 8 minutes. Drain and proceed to cut or shred on a cutting board.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, sauté shallot in oil until soft and translucent, approximately 5 minutes.
  • In a bowl, blend together cream cheese, ranch dressing, Buffalo sauce, and cooked shallots until smooth. Stir in cooked chicken and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Take the Buffalo chicken mixture and evenly distribute it on a tortilla. Sprinkle Colby-Monterey Jack and Gouda cheese on top. Place another tortilla on top to create a quesadilla. Repeat the process with the rest of the tortillas, chicken mixture, and cheese. Set aside each quesadilla as you make them.
  • Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Cook each quesadilla for about 3 minutes until one side is nicely browned. Carefully flip and continue cooking for another 3 minutes until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the rest of the quesadillas.
