Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken, shredded
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 5 pieces Tortillas (flour or whole wheat, 8-10 inches)
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil (if baking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, cilantro (if using), garlic powder, chili powder, and ground cumin. Mix until well combined.
Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about 1/5 of the chicken mixture evenly across the tortilla, leaving about an inch of space at the edges.
Roll the tortilla tightly into a log shape. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
For chilled rolls: Wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 1-inch pieces and serve cold.
For baked rolls: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly brush each roll with vegetable oil and place them seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden and crispy. Let cool for a couple of minutes, then slice into 1-inch pieces and serve warm.
