Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked and shredded chicken
- 0.5 cup Buffalo sauce
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.25 cup Ranch or blue cheese dressing
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 Flour tortillas (soft taco size)
- 2 tablespoons Melted butter
- 2 Green onions, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Using a round cookie cutter or a cup, cut each tortilla into 3-4 smaller circles, about 3-inches in diameter.
Lightly brush both sides of each tortilla circle with melted butter. Press the circles into the cups of a standard muffin tin to form small cups.
Bake the tortilla cups in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden and crisp. Remove them from the oven and set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, softened cream cheese, ranch or blue cheese dressing, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture evenly into the baked tortilla cups.
Top each filled cup with shredded cheddar cheese.
Return the filled tortilla cups to the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish each cup with chopped green onions.
Serve warm as a delicious appetizer or snack.
