Spicy Chicken Tortilla Roll-Ups
- 1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
- 12 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or 1 cup monterey jack cheese
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 3 teaspoons dried ancho chile powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt (I like Lawry's)
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
- 6 scallions, white and green parts, chopped
- 6 -8 large flour tortillas
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, half of the cumin, and 1 tsp of the chili powder. Add chicken to a skillet and add about 1 cup of water. Cover and cook on med-high heat until cooked through. Add more water if necessary. Once the chicken is cooked, cool slightly and shred with 2 forks.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, drained tomatoes, cheese, remaining spices, garlic, cilantro and scallions. Mix together until well-incorporated. Add cooled chicken and stir together.
- Lay out tortillas and divide mixture evenly in the center of each. Spread into a thin layer leaving the edges clean. Roll each tortilla tightly. Do not fold in the ends like you would with a burrito but leave them free. Use a sharp knife to cut into 1" thick slices and transfer to a serving platter. (The end pieces will likely unroll a little so just eat the extras). Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
