These Rollitos de Pollo will make your taste buds dance with delight and bring the warmth of Spanish cuisine to your table tonight!
Begin by preheating your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for approximately 5 minutes until they are soft.
While the vegetables are cooking, season the chicken breasts with spices, salt, and pepper.
Once the vegetables are ready, add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 10 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Let the chicken mixture cool for 5 minutes.
Place a tortilla on a flat surface, add a quarter of the chicken mixture down the center, and top with cheese.
Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and place it seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.
Bake the rolled tortillas in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and serve warm, garnished with your favorite salsa or sauce.
