Here’s a fun and tasty recipe for Buffalo Chicken Toaster Quesadillas that combines the heat of buffalo chicken with the crispy convenience of a toaster quesadilla!
Ingredients:
- 2 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded (preferably rotisserie or leftover)
- 1/4 cup buffalo sauce (adjust to your preferred heat level)
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing (optional, for dipping)
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Chicken:
- In a medium bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the buffalo sauce. Stir to coat the chicken evenly with the sauce.
2. Assemble the Quesadillas:
- Place one tortilla flat on a clean surface.
- Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese evenly over the tortilla.
- Add half of the buffalo chicken mixture on top of the cheese.
- Place the second tortilla on top, pressing gently to seal the quesadilla.
3. Toast the Quesadilla:
- Preheat your toaster oven to 375°F (190°C) or use the toaster function on your toaster oven (or regular oven, if needed).
- Place the assembled quesadilla in the toaster oven and toast for 4-6 minutes, or until the outside is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted inside. If your toaster oven allows, you can flip the quesadilla halfway through for an even crispiness.
4. Serve:
- Remove the quesadilla from the toaster oven and let it cool for a minute before slicing it into wedges.
- Serve with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping and garnish with sliced green onions for an extra burst of flavor.
Tips:
- For extra crunch, you can lightly spray the outside of the tortillas with cooking spray before toasting.
- You can also add extras like diced celery, cooked bacon bits, or a drizzle of honey if you want a sweet and spicy combo.
Enjoy your Buffalo Chicken Toaster Quesadilla—perfect for a quick meal or snack with a bit of kick!
