Keto Crack Chicken Pinwheels
Servings: Four
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works well)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing (ensure it’s keto-friendly with no added sugars)
- 1/4 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
- 4 large low-carb tortillas or wraps (look for ones with 5g net carbs or less per tortilla)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and ranch dressing. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Add the shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, and finely chopped green onions to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 2: Assemble the Pinwheels
- Lay out one low-carb tortilla or wrap on a flat surface.
- Spread an even layer of the crack chicken mixture over the entire tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Roll up the tortilla tightly to form a log.
- Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Step 3: Chill and Slice
- Place the rolled tortillas in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up. This makes them easier to slice.
- Once chilled, remove from the refrigerator and slice each roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels.
Step 4: Serve
- Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter.
- Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes:
- Low-Carb Tortillas: Ensure the tortillas you use are keto-friendly with a low net carb count.
- Cheese and Ranch Dressing: Opt for full-fat versions to keep the recipe keto-friendly and satiating.
- Make-Ahead: These pinwheels can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
