Ingredients

For the filling

  • 1 Cup cooked chicken shredded
  • 2 Tbsp Canned green chilies
  • 3-4 Tbsp Franks, or other favourite hot sauce
  • 1 Tbsp butter melted

For the shells

  • 1 Cup Tex-Mex shredded cheese mix

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400° Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper

  2. Shred cooked chicken with your fingers or a fork. In a small frying or sauce pan melt the butter over medium heat, add chicken, chilies and hot sauce to taste. Mix gently.

  3. Meanwhile drop small piles of shredded cheese onto a parchment lined baking sheet. A few tablespoons should do it. You want enough to melt into 6 rounds that are about 4" across each. Place baking sheet into the hot oven until cheese is bubbly and melted and beginning to just brown on the edges. Watch the cheese carefully as you don't want it to burn.

  4. When cheese is done remove baking sheet from the oven and quickly divide the chicken into 6 portions, placing the chicken mixture down the center of each cheese shell. Roll up and let set for a few minutes to firm up.
