Here’s a recipe for Chicken Bacon Ranch Roll-Ups. These make a great appetizer or snack, and they’re simple to prepare.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken breast
- 1 cup cooked, crumbled bacon
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
- 8 large flour tortillas
- Optional: 1/2 cup diced tomatoes and/or 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- Cook and shred the chicken breast. You can use leftover chicken or a rotisserie chicken to save time.
- Cook the bacon until crispy and crumble it into small pieces.
- Shred the cheddar cheese if it’s not pre-shredded.
- Finely chop the green onions (and optional ingredients like tomatoes and cilantro).
- Mix the Filling:
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, and chopped green onions. If using, add the diced tomatoes and chopped cilantro.
- Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.
- Assemble the Roll-Ups:
- Lay a flour tortilla on a flat surface.
- Spread a portion of the chicken mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Roll the tortilla tightly from one end to the other to form a log shape.
- Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Chill and Slice:
- Place the roll-ups in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up. This will make them easier to slice.
- After chilling, slice each roll-up into 1-inch pieces.
- Serve:
- Arrange the slices on a serving platter. You can serve them immediately or keep them chilled until ready to serve.
Tips:
- For a spicier version, add a few dashes of hot sauce to the chicken mixture.
- Use flavored tortillas (such as spinach or tomato) for a colorful presentation.
- These roll-ups can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
