INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🍗 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, to taste
    • Ground black pepper, to taste
    • 🧀 ½ cup shredded Gouda cheese
    • 🧀 ½ (1 inch) cube Colby-Jack cheese, shredded
    • 🌮 8 (6 inch) tortillas, or more as needed

STEPS

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

Spread some Buffalo chicken mixture on 1 tortilla; top with some Gouda and Colby-Jack cheeses. Cover with a second tortilla; set aside. Repeat with remaining tortillas, chicken mixture, and cheeses.

5

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