Buffalo Chicken Mixture
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 5 ounces Frank’s Red Hot Original Sauce
- ½ cup bleu cheese, crumbled
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup colby jack cheese, shredded
- ⅓ cup green onions, chopped
- 1 rotisserie chicken, meat shredded (about 3 cups)
Wraps
- Prepare Buffalo Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, Frank’s Red Hot Original Sauce, crumbled bleu cheese, salt, garlic powder, shredded colby jack cheese, and chopped green onions. Use a hand mixer with beaters to mix all ingredients thoroughly until smooth and no cream cheese lumps remain.
- Add Chicken: Fold the shredded rotisserie chicken into the buffalo cheese mixture. Stir well using a large spoon to ensure all chicken pieces are coated evenly with the buffalo sauce mixture.
- Assemble Roll-Ups: Lay out a large flour tortilla and spread about ¾ cup of the buffalo chicken mixture evenly across it. Roll the tortilla tightly, taking care to keep the filling evenly distributed and avoid shifting the mixture.
- Chill: Wrap each completed roll-up tightly in plastic wrap. Place the wrapped roll-ups in the refrigerator to chill for 2 to 4 hours. The chilling step helps the rolls firm up for easier slicing.
- Slice and Serve: Remove the roll-ups from the refrigerator and unwrap. Using a sharp knife, slice the roll-ups into even pieces, discarding the end pieces if desired for cleaner presentation. Serve immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Precooked shredded chicken from any oven method works well if rotisserie is unavailable.
- Chop all ingredients uniformly for a consistent texture and appearance in the filling.
- Make sure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the mixture.
- Use cocktail sticks or toothpicks to secure the roll-ups if serving to prevent them from unrolling.
- Do not skip the chilling step; it firms the roll-ups making cutting easier and neater.
