Ingredients Overview

  • 1 lb Cooked Chicken, Shredded: You can use rotisserie chicken for a quick option or freshly cooked chicken breast for a homemade touch. The shredded chicken should be tender and easy to pull apart.
  • 1 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese: Choose a sharp or mild cheddar, depending on your taste preference. The cheese melts beautifully and adds a rich, creamy texture.
  • 1/2 Cup Cooked and Crumbled Bacon: For best results, use thick-cut bacon that is cooked until crisp, then crumbled into small pieces. The smoky, salty flavor adds a delicious contrast to the creamy ranch.
  • 1/4 Cup Ranch Dressing: The ranch dressing brings a creamy element to the quesadilla, balancing out the savory chicken and bacon.
  • 8 Large Flour Tortillas: Soft and pliable, flour tortillas make it easy to fold the quesadillas and crisp them up perfectly in the skillet.
