Tips:

  • When choosing chicken breasts, look for ones that are about the same size so they cook evenly. If you can't find evenly sized breasts, you can pound the thicker ones thinner with a meat mallet.
  • To make the chicken breasts easier to roll up, pound them out until they are about 1/4-inch thick. You can use a meat mallet or a rolling pin to do this.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the chicken breasts in a skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to cook them until they are cooked through, about 7-8 minutes per side.
  • You can use any type of tortillas you like for this recipe. Corn tortillas, flour tortillas, or even whole wheat tortillas will all work well.
  • If you are using corn tortillas, be sure to warm them up before using them. This will make them more pliable and less likely to crack when you roll them up.
  • Feel free to get creative with the fillings. You can add other ingredients to the chicken mixture, such as black beans, corn, or cheese. You can also change up the sauce. For example, you could use a salsa verde or a ranch dressing instead of the sour cream.

Conclusion:

Chicken taco roll-ups are a delicious and easy meal that can be made in just 30 minutes. They are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a party appetizer. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the tortillas are soft and chewy. The sour cream sauce adds a creamy richness that ties all the flavors together.
