Combine the diced bacon, chopped chicken, minced onion, barbecue sauce, and zesty ranch dressing in a large bowl. Stir until all the ingredients are well coated with the sauces.

Preheat your griddle or quesadilla press.

Place a flour tortilla on a flat surface. Layer half of the barbecue chicken mixture evenly over it, ensuring a 1-inch border around the edge.

Evenly scatter half of the shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the chicken mixture and top with slices of avocado.

Cover with another flour tortilla and transfer the prepared quesadilla to the preheated griddle or quesadilla press.

Cook until the tortilla turns golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-5 minutes on each side. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients for the second quesadilla.
7
Let the quesadillas rest for a few minutes before cutting them into wedges. Serve while hot.
