Southwest Chicken Rollups

Southwest Chicken Rollups
Tortillas, chicken, vegetables and cheese combine for an easy handheld meal the whole family will enjoy. Use a rotisserie chicken or cold cuts from your supermarket deli counter.

3 cups chopped, cooked chicken
1 (8-ounce) jar picante sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons Watkins Chili Powder or Watkins Organic Chili Powder
1/4 teaspoon Watkins Organic Garlic Powder
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can black beans, drained
8 flour tortillas
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 medium tomato, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
1/2 cup prepared guacamole
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro

1. Combine the chicken, picante sauce, chili powder and garlic powder in a large skillet and mix well. Cook over medium heat until heated through, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add 3/4 cup of the Cheddar and the beans and mix well.

2. Wrap the tortillas in a kitchen towel and microwave on High for 1 minute. Or place tortillas on a plate and cover with a paper towel and microwave.

3. Spoon equal portions of the chicken mixture onto each warm tortilla. Top with the remaining cheddar, the lettuce, tomato, green onions, guacamole, sour cream and cilantro. Roll to enclose the filling and serve.

Variation
For a delicious meatless meal, replace the chicken with refried beans or red kidney beans, then add grilled peppers and onions and sliced black olives to the filling.

Tip
Coring Iceberg Lettuce
To quickly core iceberg lettuce, hold the head in both hands with the core facing down, then sharply rap the head on a work surface. The core then can be simply pulled out and the tightly packed leaves are easily removed.
