Description
Simple pinwheels made with shredded chicken, cream cheese, bacon, and ranch seasoning, rolled in tortillas.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken
- 1/2 cup crumbled bacon
- 1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, ranch seasoning mix, and cheddar cheese. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about one-fourth of the chicken mixture evenly over the entire surface of the tortilla, leaving a small border.
- Tightly roll the tortilla from one edge to the opposite edge, forming a compact log.
- Wrap the rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Refrigerate the wrapped rolls for at least 2 hours, or until firm. This helps them hold their shape when slicing.
- Before serving, unwrap the chilled rolls. Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels.
Notes
- You can use rotisserie chicken for quick preparation.
- If the cream cheese is too cold, it will be difficult to spread evenly. Let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- For a firmer roll, chill the tortillas briefly before spreading the filling.
