Ingredients
•3 ounces cream cheese, softened
•¼ cup green salsa
•1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
•½ teaspoon ground cumin
•1 teaspoon chili powder
•½ teaspoon garlic powder
•3 cloves garlic, minced
•2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
•2 tablespoons chopped green onions
•2 cups shredded cooked chicken
•1 cup shredded Mexican cheese
•small to medium sized flour tortillas
•kosher salt
•cooking spray
Instructions
1.Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or spray the pan with cooking spray.
2.In large bowl, combine the cream cheese, salsa, lime juice, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and garlic. Mix them well with a spoon and stir in the cilantro and green onions. Add the chicken and cheese; mix thoroughly. (To cook chicken, boil thawed chicken over medium high heat until cooked through. Shred the chicken using two forks or using hands.)
3.Working with about 3-4 tortillas at a time, heat them in the microwave between two paper towels until they are soft enough to roll, about 20 seconds.
4.Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the lower third of a tortilla. Roll the tortilla as tightly as you can.
5.Place the rolled tortilla seam side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Make sure the burritos are not touching each other in the pan. Spray the tops with cooking spray and sprinkle with kosher salt.
6.Bake for about 15-18 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. Serve with sour cream or your favorite Mexican style topping.
