Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Shred the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and place in a mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Mix the Buffalo Sauce

    Add the buffalo sauce to the shredded chicken and mix well until all pieces are coated.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Quesadillas

    Place one tortilla in the skillet. On one half of the tortilla, layer 1/2 cup of the buffalo chicken mixture, followed by 1/4 cup each of cheddar and mozzarella cheese.

  5. 5

    Cook the Quesadilla

    Fold the tortilla in half and press down gently. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown, then flip and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and the tortilla is crispy.

  6. 6

    Repeat the Process

    Remove the cooked quesadilla from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat the assembly and cooking steps for the remaining tortillas and filling.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Cut each quesadilla into wedges, garnish with chopped green onions, and serve with sour cream and celery sticks on the side.
