Scrape down side and bottom of Bowl. Turn to Speed 4 and mix 30 seconds.

  2. Heat tortillas in the microwave on high for 30 seconds, wrapped in a paper towel. Transfer to clean work surface. Top with 1 cup chicken mixture, spreading evenly. Roll up tightly. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

  3. Wrap each roll-up in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight. When ready to serve, unwrap roll-ups. Cut off and discard about 5 cm from each end, then slice roll-ups into 2,5 cm pieces. Garnish with green chilies, tomatoes, scallions and cilantro.
