  3. Lay a flour tortilla flat and spoon a generous amount of the chicken filling into the center.
  4. Starting from one edge, tightly roll the tortilla around the filling, tucking in the sides as you go.
  5. Continue with the remaining tortillas and filling, placing them seam-side down.
  6. Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.

Notes

Soften the cream cheese for a smoother filling and consider chilling for easier slicing. Use a serrated knife for clean cuts and balance filling for best results.
