| 1.5 | lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts |
| 1 | can Ro-tel diced tomatoes, drained |
| 12 | oz cream cheese, softened |
| 1 | cup shredded cheddar or monterey jack cheese |
| 1 | clove garlic, minced |
| 3 | tsp ancho chili powder |
| 1 | tsp cumin |
| ½ | tsp cayenne pepper |
| ½ | tsp garlic salt (I like Lawry's) |
| ¼ | cup cilantro, chopped |
| 6 | scallions, white and green parts, chopped |
| 6-8 | large flour tortillas |
Season the chicken breasts with salt, half of the cumin, and 1 tsp of the chili powder. Add chicken to a skillet and add about 1 cup of water. Cover and cook on med-high heat until cooked through. Add more water if necessary. Once the chicken is cooked, cool slightly and shred with 2 forks.
In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, drained tomatoes, cheese, remaining spices, garlic, cilantro and scallions. Mix together until well-incorporated. Add cooled chicken and stir together.
Lay out tortillas and divide mixture evenly in the center of each. Spread into a thin layer leaving the edges clean. Roll each tortilla tightly. Do not fold in the ends like you would with a burrito but leave them free. Use a sharp knife to cut into 1”thick slices and transfer to a serving platter. (The end pieces will likely unroll a little so just eat the extras). Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
