Buffalo Chicken Pinwheels are a mouthwatering fusion of flavors that bring together the zesty punch of buffalo sauce with the creaminess of cream cheese, all wrapped in a soft tortilla. These pinwheels are not just delicious; they're versatile, making them perfect for game day snacks, parties, or even a quick lunch. Originating from the classic buffalo chicken wings, this no-bake recipe offers a flavorful alternative that’s easy to prepare and can be served cold or at room temperature.
Ingredients
Scale:
2 large flour tortillas (whole wheat or spinach can be used for variety)
1 cup shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken works great)
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup buffalo sauce
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Fresh herbs (like cilantro or parsley), chopped
Creamy ranch dressing for dipping
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, and buffalo sauce. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Spread the chicken mixture evenly over each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken mixture.
Carefully roll the tortillas tightly from one end to the other.
Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
After chilling, remove the tortillas from the fridge and unwrap them. Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels.
Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter and garnish with fresh herbs. Serve with creamy ranch dressing for dipping.
