I love anything “Tex-Mex” because of the bold and spicy flavors. This recipe was\u00a0inspired by Chili’s classic appetizer, but with added veggies and spice. \u00a0These rolls can be served as either an appetizer or a main entree.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Add onions and pepper to your pan with a splash of olive oil.\u00a0 Cook over medium heat for just a few minutes so they aren\u2019t too crunchy.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Once the veggies are to your liking, add the spinach, corn, beans, chicken, and spices.<\/p>\n

I love spicy food, so I add a lot of hot sauce and additional cayenne pepper!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Let the mixture cook for a few minutes to allow the flavors to blend together.<\/p>\n

After about 5 minutes, remove from heat and stir in the cheese.\u00a0 The cheese makes the mixture very creamy \u2013 it’s hard to resist eating it right out of the pan at this point!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Spoon the mixture into your tortillas \u2013 trying not to overfill them.\u00a0 I usually end up with a mess because I add too much of the filling to\u00a0the tortillas\u00a0\u2013 so just be careful!\u00a0Roll the tortillas tight.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

I prefer to pan fry the rolls with a little bit of vegetable oil, but you can also\u00a0use a deep fryer. \u00a0I’ve tried it both ways, and I just don\u2019t think deep frying them\u00a0adds enough to pull out the fryer and clean up the mess.\u00a0 If you do use a deep fryer, use toothpicks to hold the rolls together.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

If you pan fry the rolls, make sure you rotate them to ensure all sides are crispy.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Once the rolls are cooked, allow them to cool for a few minutes and then slice on a diagonal.\u00a0 I enjoy eating them with avocado-ranch dressing and more hot sauce. Enjoy!<\/p>\n
