Instructions
In a slow cooker combine chicken tenders, barbecue sauce, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cover and cook on high 1 1/2 - 2 hours or until chicken is cooked and falling apart.
Right before serving, remove chicken from crock pot, shred using two forks, return to slow cooker and mix the chicken into the barbecue sauce.
Preheat oven to 400. Spray baking sheet with cooking oil or line with parchment paper, set aside.
Add barbecue chicken mixture onto the middle of each tortilla, then tightly roll up the tortilla. Place on prepared baking sheet, repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken, placing in a single layer about a 1-inch apart; make sure they aren’t touching.
Bake for 5 minutes, then top with shredded cheddar cheese and cook for another 5-6 minutes or until cheese has melted and tortillas are a nice golden brown.
Optional toppings: corn, cilantro and diced purple onion. Serve with additional barbecue sauce for dipping.
