Ingredients
12 oz cooked shredded chicken
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup ranch dressing
1/4 cup buffalo sauce
1/4 cup green onions, diced finely
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
5-6 flour tortillas
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, ranch dressing, and buffalo sauce.
Use an electric hand mixer to blend until the mixture is completely smooth and free of lumps.
Fold in the shredded chicken, diced green onions, and shredded cheddar cheese using a spatula until evenly coated.
Spread a generous amount of the mixture evenly across the surface of each tortilla.
Roll each tortilla tightly, ensuring the edges are tucked securely to create a compact cylinder.
Wrap each individual roll tightly in plastic wrap to maintain shape.
Chill the rolls in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Once chilled, slice into bite-sized rounds and serve.
Notes
Use rotisserie chicken for extra speed. Blue cheese dressing can be used instead of ranch if preferred. Shred your own cheddar cheese for better melting and texture. Keep the rolls wrapped tightly during the chilling process to ensure they hold their shape for clean slicing.
