Description
Crack Chicken Pinwheels are a delightful fusion of creamy, savory chicken and rich cheese, all wrapped in a soft tortilla. Each bite bursts with flavor, featuring a hint of ranch seasoning and a satisfying crunch from the crispy bacon, making them irresistible.
Ingredients
- Chicken: 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
- Cheese: 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- Cheese: 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Bacon: 6 slices, cooked and crumbled
- Ranch: 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- Tortillas: 4 large flour tortillas
- Green Onions: 1/4 cup, chopped
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, ranch seasoning, and chopped green onions until well mixed.
- Lay out a tortilla on a clean surface and spread a generous amount of the chicken mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Starting from one end, tightly roll the tortilla into a log shape, ensuring the filling stays inside.
- Wrap the rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Once chilled, remove the plastic wrap and slice the roll into 1-inch pinwheels.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Make-ahead: These pinwheels can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
- Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Substitutions: Use Greek yogurt instead of cream cheese for a lighter option, or swap out the bacon for diced bell peppers for a vegetarian version.
