8 ounces whipped cream cheese

Steps:

Garlic Spread: remove papery skin from garlic head; cut top off garlic bulb, exposing garlic cloves.
Place bulb in center of large piece of foil; drizzle with oil and wrap to enclose, sealing edges tightly.
Roast in preheated 400° oven for 35-40 minutes or until fragrant and soft.
Unwrap garlic; gently remove garlic cloves.
Mash 5 cloves with a fork, creating a paste; reserve remaining garlic for another recipe.
In a medium bowl, combine paste, cream cheese, chives, and jalapeno; season with salt to taste.
Taste and add more garlic cloves, if desired.
Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for 1 hour or for up to 4 days.
Tacos: in a small bowl, combine rosemary, salt, and peppercorns.

Grill chicken on preheated greased barbecue grill, med-high heat, turning once, until no longer pink inside, 6-8 minutes per side.
Transfer chicken to a cutting board; let stand 6-8 minutes.
Cut into thin slices.
Build tacos--divide chicken equally among tortillas.
