Chicken Creamy Cheese Tortillas are soft flour tortillas filled with a creamy, cheesy chicken mixture and baked until golden and bubbly. They’re comforting, easy to make, and perfect for weeknight dinners or casual gatherings.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie recommended)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 6–8 flour tortillas (medium size)
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil, for greasing baking dish
  • Optional toppings: salsa, chopped green onions, jalapeños, fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with butter or oil.
  2. In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and half of both shredded cheeses until smooth.
  3. Fold in the shredded chicken until evenly coated with the creamy mixture.
  4. Spoon the chicken mixture into each tortilla, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar and mozzarella/Monterey Jack cheese over the top.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Let cool slightly, then add optional toppings like salsa or green onions before serving.

Notes

  • Add taco seasoning or chili powder to the filling for a spicy twist.
  • Mix in veggies like corn, spinach, or chopped peppers for added nutrition.
  • Use pepper jack cheese for extra flavor or drizzle enchilada sauce before baking.
  • Warm corn tortillas before using to prevent cracking.
