Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken Ensure the chicken is Halal-certified.
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella) Use Halal-certified cheese.
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup blue cheese (optional) Crumbled blue cheese adds extra flavor.
- as needed tablespoon Oil for cooking Any cooking oil of choice.
- as needed serving Sour cream or ranch dressing (optional) For serving.
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce. Make sure every piece is evenly coated for maximum flavor.
Assembly
- Take a large flour tortilla and spread about 1/4 of the chicken mixture on one half of the tortilla. Sprinkle with cheese and optional crumbled blue cheese. Fold the other half of the tortilla over to cover the filling.
Cooking
- In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat, ensuring the oil coats the bottom of the pan for a nice, crispy finish.
- Carefully place the folded quesadilla in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown. Flip it over and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the other side is crispy.
Serving
- Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Slice into wedges and serve with sour cream or ranch dressing.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. For longer storage, freeze for up to three months. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat, flipping occasionally until heated through and crispy.
