Time 2h20m

Yield 4 Rollups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 32

2 cups water
1/3 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon ground chipotle chile pepper or 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons hickory liquid smoke
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 chicken breast fillets
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons minced onions
2 tablespoons diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon white distilled vinegar
2 teaspoons cilantro, minced
1 teaspoon canned green chili pepper
3 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 pinch dill weed
1 pinch cumin
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1/3 cup red onion, diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and diced
2 teaspoons lime juice
2 teaspoons minced fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
40 inches flour tortillas
2 cups Mexican blend cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Mix the ingredients listed for the marinade. Make sure the sugar has been stirred until dissolved. Add the chicken breasts in bowl with the marinade. Marinate the chicken for 2 hours in a covered bowl.
  • While the chicken marinates, make the dipping sauce by combining the dipping sauce ingredients. Stir well and chill in covered bowl.
  • Combine the ingredients listed for the pico de gallo. Chill in covered bowl as well, so the flavors mingle!
  • Build each roll-up with a large tortilla in a large skillet with low heat. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup of the combined cheeses over the surface of the tortilla.
  • When the cheese begins to melt, take the tortilla out of the pan. Sprinkle about 1 c of shredded lettuce in a strip across the tortilla center, followed by about 3 Tbsp of the pico de gallo.
  • Slice one grilled chicken breast into bite-sized chunks and arrange the chicken on the lettuce. Fold the ends of the tortilla over the filling, then roll the tortilla from the bottom. Make a diagonal cut across the center of the roll-up and serve with a small dish of the dipping sauce.

These rollups were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the rollups were a bit difficult to roll. I think I'll try using a larger tortilla next time.

These rollups were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use a milder salsa.

I'm not a big fan of chicken fajitas, but these rollups were surprisingly good. The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the tortillas were soft and chewy. I will definitely be making these again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also added some black beans and corn to the filling for a more hearty meal.
