SOUTHWEST CHEESE CHICKEN WRAP
INGREDIENTS
For the cheese wraps:
- 12 oz/ 340 g Shredded cheddar jack cheese Bought in a block and shredded yourself at home
For the filling:
- 1 Olive oil
- 8 oz/ 142 g Shredded rotisserie omega-3 chicken
- ½ Red bell pepper chopped
- ½ Orange bell pepper chopped
- ½ Large jalapeno deseeded and finely chopped
- ½ Cumin
- 1 Chili powder
- ½ Oregano
- 1 Minced garlic
- 3 oz/ 85 g Cream cheese
- ⅔ Sour cream
- ½ Shredded cheddar jack cheese
- 1 Shredded purple cabbage
- 2-3 Chopped green onions
- Ginger and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 375°F/ 190°C.
- Shred the cheddar jack cheese. Shredding it from the block works way better than the pre-shredded cheese for making the wraps.
- Create circles of shredded cheese about 4-6 inches 10 – 15 cm across on a parchment lined baking sheet. Leave room between each circle, as they will expand a bit as they cook.
- Bake for 10 minutes until the cheese has a lace-like appearance and has begun to brown slightly around the edges. Let the cheese cool until it can be easily handled without burning yourself.
- While the cheese is cooking, heat the oil in a stoneware fry pan over medium-high heat on the stove, and add the chicken, bell peppers and jalapeno peppers to it.
- Add the chili powder, cumin, oregano and ginger and pepper to taste to the fry pan with the chicken mixture and continue to cook for a few minutes until heated through and the peppers are beginning to soften.
- Stir in the minced garlic, cream cheese and sour cream. Mix and cook until the cream cheese has melted.
- Remove from the heat, and stir the green onions, purple cabbage and ½ cup of cheese into the mixture.
- When the wraps have cooled, place a thick layer of filling in the centre of each one, and roll them closed to serve.
