Preparation Steps
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, warm your shredded cooked chicken, mixing in buffalo sauce until everything is heated through—about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a non-stick skillet, heat each flour tortilla over medium-low heat for 1-2 minutes on each side until they are pliable.
  3. Spread a generous drizzle of ranch dressing on one half of each warmed tortilla, then pile on the spicy buffalo chicken mixture and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Carefully fold the tortilla over and enjoy your Buffalo Chicken Tacos while they're hot.
