Description

A baked, healthier, and modern twist on the classic Chicken Taquitos.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cups Cream Cheese
  • ¼ cups Salsa
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Cumin
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • ¼ cups Fresh Cilantro, Chopped
  • 2 whole Green Onions, Chopped
  • 2 cups Chicken, Cooked And Shredded
  • ½ cups Monterey Jack & Cheddar Cheese Blend; Shredded
  • ½ cups Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
  • 2 pinches Salt, To Taste And For Topping (More If Needed)
  • 2 pinches Ground Pepper To Taste
  • 12 whole 6 Inch Flour Tortillas
  • 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil For Topping

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside until needed.

In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the cream cheese, salsa, lemon juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic, cilantro, green onions, chicken, and cheeses. Mix until combined. Add the salt and pepper according to taste.

Heat the tortillas, 2 at a time, in a microwave for 20 seconds. You want them to be warm and soft enough to easily roll up. Place 1 tortilla on a cutting board or work surface and spoon about 3 tablespoons of filling down the middle of the tortilla. Tightly roll up the tortilla and place it, seam down on the prepared baking sheet. Continue filling the remaining tortillas until you run out of filling.

Brush the tops of the taquitos with olive oil and sprinkle with some kosher salt. Bake until they turn a light golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Let cool slightly and then serve with some sour cream, salsa, and/or guacamole.

Recipe slightly adapted from Pennies on a Platter, via Annie’s Eats.
