Easy to make in just 30 minutes, theyβre ideal for parties, picnics, or light snacking. Serve them chilled and watch them disappear from the platter in no time!
Fill a medium saucepan with water, bring to a boil, and cook the shrimp for 3-4 minutes until they are pink and opaque. Drain and set aside to cool.
Finely chop the cooked shrimp into small pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, fresh dill, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Fold the chopped shrimp and finely sliced green onions into the cream cheese mixture until evenly distributed.
Lay a flour tortilla on a clean surface. Spread 1/4 of the shrimp mixture evenly across the entire tortilla, leaving a slight border around the edges.
Roll the tortilla tightly into a log shape. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and shrimp mixture.
Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
After chilling, remove the plastic wrap and slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels using a sharp knife.
Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter and garnish with extra dill, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
