✨ Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
- 4 Nutrafarms chicken thighs
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt & pepper (to taste)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp Cajun seasoning
- ½ cup soup broth or chicken bouillon
- ⅓ cup BBQ sauce (plus extra for glazing)
For the Rollups:
- 4 tortilla wraps
- ½ red onion, sliced (pickled optional)
- ½ cucumber, sliced thin
- ½ cup cream cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheese
- 2 green onions, chopped
🔥 Instructions:
1. Cook the Chicken
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Place chicken thighs in the pan and cook for 5 minutes per side. Once flipped, season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Cajun seasoning.
2. Simmer Until Tender
Pour in the broth or bouillon and let everything simmer for another 5 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
3. Shred and Sauce the Chicken
Remove from heat and shred the chicken using two forks. Mix the shredded meat with a bit of broth and BBQ sauce for juicy, flavour-packed filling.
4. Assemble the Rollups
Lay out your tortillas and spread a layer of cream cheese. Add sliced cucumber, red onion, the shredded BBQ chicken, a sprinkle of shredded cheese, and chopped green onions.
5. Roll, Glaze, and Bake
Roll the tortillas tightly and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Glaze with a bit of extra BBQ sauce and bake at 400°F for 7 minutes — or air fry at 180°C for 5 minutes — until golden and warm.
6. Serve & Enjoy
These rollups are best served warm, with an extra side of dipping sauce or just as they are. Perfect for snacks, parties, or laid-back dinners.
