Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil and let it warm for about 1 minute. Add diced chicken breasts, cooking them for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
- Once the chicken is done, introduce chopped onions and green bell peppers to the skillet. Sauté these veggies for 3-5 minutes until they soften.
- Mix in diced tomatoes and seasonings (chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper). Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until tomatoes soften.
- Remove from heat and gently fold in crumbled bacon into the chicken and vegetable mixture. Set aside.
- Spread about ¼ cup of the chicken mixture across half of each tortilla. Layer with shredded cheese and drizzle with ranch dressing.
- Fold the empty half of the tortilla over to cover the filling and crimp the edges to seal.
- Add butter or cooking spray to the skillet. Cook the folded quesadillas for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the skillet and let them rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing into wedges.
