Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded Ensure the chicken is halāl-certified.
  • 4 large tortillas
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (e.g., cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • to taste salt and pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by shredding the cooked chicken if you haven’t already. You can use rotisserie chicken or leftovers for convenience.
Mixing the Filling
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, shredded cheese, diced bell peppers, diced onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Assembling the Roll-Ups
  1. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken filling onto the center of the tortilla. Roll it up tightly, folding in the sides as you go to create a nice bundle. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Cooking the Roll-Ups
  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the roll-ups seam-side down in the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Serving
  1. Once cooked, remove the roll-ups from the skillet and let them cool for a minute. Cut in half and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or salsa.

Notes

You can swap cream cheese for Greek yogurt for a lighter option or experiment with different cheeses for varying flavors. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
