Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)

  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened

  • 1/2 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese

  • 1 packet taco seasoning (1 oz)

  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes or drained Rotel

  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions (or fresh cilantro)

  • 5–6 large flour tortillas (10-inch, soft or extra soft)

Optional twists: jalapeños, black beans, corn, or a ranch seasoning swap

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Creamy Base

  1. In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, and taco seasoning.

  2. Mix until completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides to ensure everything is incorporated.

Step 2: Add the Mix-Ins

  1. Fold in shredded chicken, cheese, diced tomatoes, and chopped green onions.

  2. Stir until everything is evenly coated in the seasoned cream cheese mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired.

Step 3: Roll the Tortillas

  1. Lay one tortilla flat on a board. Spread 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the chicken mixture evenly over the tortilla.

  2. Roll it tightly from the edge closest to you. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Wrap each log in plastic wrap for easier handling.

Step 4: Chill

  1. Refrigerate the rolled tortillas seam-side down for at least 30 minutes (up to 4 hours) to firm up the filling.

Step 5: Slice & Serve

  1. Trim the ends of each roll and slice into 1-inch pieces using a sharp serrated knife.

  2. Arrange on a platter and serve chilled or at room temperature with salsa, avocado crema, or your favorite dip.
