Description
These bite-sized snacks pack all the flavors of a taco in a creamy ranch-infused filling, perfect for parties or appetizers!
Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 20 mini tortilla cups or wonton wrappers
- Sour cream and salsa for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). If using wonton wrappers, press them into a mini muffin tin to form cups.
Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, taco seasoning, ranch dressing, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated and creamy.
Assemble the Bites: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the taco ranch mixture into each tortilla cup or wonton wrapper. Press the mixture slightly to ensure it's firmly packed.
Bake: Place the filled cups on a baking sheet or in the muffin tin and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and the filling is heated through.
Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Top with a dollop of sour cream and a spoonful of salsa for extra flavor, if desired.
Notes
- You can substitute the chicken with ground beef or turkey for variety.
- Add jalapeños or hot sauce to the filling for a spicier kick.
