We decided to jazz up our knock-off Chili’s Chicken Bacon Ranch Recipe and add a little speecy-spice to it by creating these Jalapeño Chicken Bacon Ranch Quesadillas. Soooo good, friends!

Instructions
Prepare your chicken until it’s fully cooked and then shred finely.
If you’re frying bacon to crumble, prepare that now and set aside to cool before crumbling.
Prepare your ranch dressing (if you aren’t using bottled) and set it aside.
Spray your skillet with cooking spray, and place tortillas down to brown.
Drizzle a little ranch onto the tortillas, and “paint” it onto the rest of the tortillas using a basting brush (the ranch acts like glue for your ingredients).
Sprinkle the chicken onto the ranch, topping with bacon, then shredded cheese, then paint another tortilla with ranch for the top.
Place the ranch-painted tortilla over top, smoosh down with your hand to set it together, and flip (but be careful)!
Once browned on both sides, remove from heat onto a plate.
Use a pizza cutter and slice up your tortillas into quesadilla triangles, approximately six-to-eight triangles per tortilla.
