2️⃣ Make the Ranch Sauce
- In a medium bowl, whisk together ranch seasoning, mayonnaise, sour cream, half and half, dried minced onion, Worcestershire sauce, and optional horseradish and jalapeños.The sauce should be smooth, creamy, and pourable.
- Refrigerate while prepping other ingredients.Chilling helps flavors meld and thickens the sauce slightly.
3️⃣ Cook the Bacon
- Cook bacon in a skillet until crispy, then chop into small pieces.Crispy bacon adds texture and smoky flavor throughout the quesadilla.
4️⃣ Assemble the Quesadillas
- Lay tortillas flat. Spread a thin layer of softened cream cheese on half of each tortilla.This adds creaminess and helps bind the fillings.
- Add shredded chicken, chopped bacon, cheddar, colby jack, and a drizzle of ranch sauce.Distribute evenly for balanced flavor in each bite.
- Sprinkle additional diced jalapeños if desired.They add heat and tang that complements the ranch.
- Fold tortillas in half to enclose the filling.Press gently to help everything stay in place.
5️⃣ Cook
- Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat.Medium heat ensures golden tortillas without burning.
- Cook quesadillas 2–3 minutes per side, pressing lightly, until golden brown and cheese is melted.The edges should be crisp and the center fully gooey.
