Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked shredded chicken

1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (adjust based on your preferred spice level)

1 tablespoon olive oil

8 flour tortillas (either uncooked or pre-cooked)

2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup diced green onions (optional, for garnish)

1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional, for garnish)

Sour cream or ranch dressing (for dipping)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken Filling: In a large bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken with the buffalo wing sauce, thoroughly mixing until all the chicken is well-coated. Taste the mixture and add more buffalo sauce if you desire additional heat.

    Heat the Pan: Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. A non-stick griddle can also be used if available, allowing for more quesadillas to be cooked at once.

      Assemble the Quesadilla: Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a quarter of the chicken mixture onto one half of the tortilla. Evenly sprinkle about 1/4 cup of sharp cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese over the chicken.

        Fold and Cook: Carefully fold the tortilla in half, pressing down gently to seal the edges. Transfer the folded quesadilla into the hot skillet. Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes until the bottom side is golden brown. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crispy.

          Keep Warm and Repeat: Once cooked, remove the quesadilla from the skillet and place it in a warm oven to keep it hot while you repeat the assembly and cooking process for the remaining quesadillas.

            Stack and Serve: After all the quesadillas are cooked, stack two or three on a serving plate. Cut each stack into triangles for easy serving. If desired, sprinkle the top with diced green onions and crumbled blue cheese for added flavor and visual appeal.

              Garnish and Enjoy: Serve your Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla Stackers hot with a side of sour cream or ranch dressing for a perfect dipping experience. Indulge in your deliciously spicy and cheesy creation!
