Creamy Chicken Flautas

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/3 cup salsa
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1/3 cup water
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or jack)
8 oz cream cheese
10 - 12 flour tortillas
Optional: Salsa and/or Guacamole for dipping


Instructions
  • Combine chicken, salsa, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and water in a crock pot.
  • Cook on high 4 hours, or on low 8 hours.
  • Shred chicken using 2 forks to pull apart.
  • Add cream cheese and shredded cheese.
  • Cook another 15 minutes - 1/2 hour. 
  • Stir to combine. (I allow mixture to cool somewhat before assembly)
  •  heat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Making a line down the middle of each tortilla, evenly distribute chicken mixture over each tortilla, and then roll up tight.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment  paper.
  • Place rolled up tortillas, evenly spaced, on the cookie sheet (seam side down) and spray cooking spray generously over the top.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until tortillas become golden-brown.
  • If extra crispness is desired, place under broiler 1 - 3 minutes - careful, they burn easily!
