Method
- Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken with ranch dressing and stir until well coated. Add diced bell peppers and chopped green onions. Mix together and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Heat the Skillet: Place a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat for 1 minute until shimmering.
- Assemble in the Pan: Lay one tortilla flat in the skillet. Spread a generous portion of chicken filling on one half, leaving a half-inch border at the edge. Sprinkle a quarter of the shredded cheese over the filling. Fold the empty half over and press lightly with the spatula.
- Cook Until Crispy: Cook for 3 to 4 minutes without moving until the bottom is deep golden brown. Use a wide spatula for a quick confident flip and cook the second side for another 3 to 4 minutes until crispy and cheese is fully melted.
- Rest and Slice: Transfer to a cutting board and rest for 1 minute before slicing into wedges. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Serve warm.
Notes
Always warm shredded chicken before mixing to prevent a soggy filling. Do not overfill the tortilla. Keep heat at medium throughout cooking. Store leftovers with parchment between layers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes, flipping once, to restore crispiness. Can be assembled uncooked and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before cooking.
