Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 oz cream cheese at room temp
  • 2-4 tbsp Sriracha sauce or to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken cooked, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning
  • salt to taste, kosher salt
  • black pepper to taste, kosher salt
  • 4 large tortilla burrito-size
  • 1 red bell pepper seeded and finely chopped
  • 4 green onions finely sliced
  • cilantro finely chopped, a handful, fresh
  • lime to serve, wedges; optional

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, Sriracha, cooked chicken and cheese.
  2. Season with the taco seasoning, plus salt and pepper to your taste and mix well to combine.
  3. Lay a tortilla on a clean platter or chopping board and spread with 1/4 of the chicken mixture. Sprinkle with the finely chopped bell pepper, green onions and cilantro.
  4. Roll tight and shape by hand, then wrap each in cling film. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Use a very sharp chef's knife to slice into 1 inch pinwheels.

Notes

  • You can make these pinwheels up to a day in advance. Just leave wrapped tightly in the plastic wrap and slice right before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
