Step 1
Gently heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Lay a tortilla flat in the pan and sprinkle a good amount of Oaxaca cheese on top. Drizzle some Buffalo sauce and ranch dressing over the cheese. Then, add the chicken on one half of the tortilla. Let it cook for a couple of minutes until the cheese starts to melt.
Step 2
Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling. Carefully flip it over and cook for another 3 minutes or so, until both sides are nicely golden and crispy. Once done, take it off the skillet and cut into four wedges. Serve warm and enjoy!
Serving Ideas For Family Meals
Serve with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping. Fresh veggies like celery sticks or a simple green salad balance the heat and add crunch. A cold drink pairs well to cool down the spice.
Storage Tips
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven to keep the quesadilla crispy. Avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.
