Tortilla Pinwheels, Two Ways
One batch rolls peanut-dressed chicken with scallions and chopped herbs, the other pairs herbed cream cheese with black olives and crisp cucumber. Stand them upright on a board for an easy, colorful party lunch.
Test kitchen note: Chill the filled rolls wrapped in plastic for at least an hour so they slice into clean spirals without squashing.
Method 6 steps
-
Toss the chicken with the peanut dressing, scallions and chopped peanuts.
-
Beat the cream cheese with chives until smooth.
-
Spread two tortillas with a thin layer of the cream cheese, then cover them with the chicken mixture.
-
Spread the remaining cream cheese thickly over the other two tortillas and scatter with olives, cucumber and lettuce.
-
Roll each tortilla up tightly, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour.
-
Trim the ends, cut into 1 1/2-inch slices and stand the pinwheels upright to serve.
That is the whole pie. Enjoy every slice.
