Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning mix
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded pepper jack cheese
- 8 pieces Small flour tortillas
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Salsa
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Step 3
Season the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook the chicken breasts in the skillet for 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from heat and shred using two forks.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded pepper jack cheese, salsa, cilantro, and the remaining tablespoon of taco seasoning. Mix until well combined.
Step 5
Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture onto the tortilla and roll it tightly. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Step 6
Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Use a pastry brush to lightly coat the tops of the rolls with the remaining olive oil.
Step 7
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden and crispy.
Step 8
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm with your favorite taco toppings such as sour cream, guacamole, or extra salsa.
