Ingredients
2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 small can (4 oz) diced green chiles, drained
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp chili powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
4–6 large flour tortillas
Instructions
Make the Filling
In a large bowl, combine cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Stir in the shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, bell pepper, green onions, cilantro, green chiles, and spices. Mix well until everything is evenly coated.
Assemble the Pinwheels
Spread a generous layer of the chicken mixture evenly over each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
Roll and Chill
Roll each tortilla tightly into a log. Wrap them in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours to firm up. This step is key for clean slicing.
Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels. Arrange on a platter and serve chilled or at room temperature.
