    • Slice each rolled tortillas off the ends and set aside. Garnish with sliced green onions and or cilantro.

    NOTES

    * – Make sure your tortillas are at room temperature before you roll them so they are nice and flexible.

    * – Smaller tortillas may be used, however you will need to adjust the amount of chicken  and cheese mixture you add to each tortilla.

    * – If time is an issue, you can skip the refrigeration before slicing or refrigerate for less time. However, for best results, refrigeration is recommended.

    * – You can use a rotisserie chicken, or cook and shred your own.  My grocery store sells pre-cooked, seasoned, shredded chicken that makes these even easier!
