Chicken taquitos

Sure! Here’s a recipe for chicken taquitos:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken
• 1/2 cup salsa
• 1/2 cup shredded cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 12-15 small corn tortillas
• Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, salsa, shredded cheese, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
• Warm the tortillas in the microwave for about 30 seconds, until they are pliable.
• Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla and roll up tightly.
• Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

• Once the oil is hot, carefully place a few rolled-up taquitos seam side down in the hot oil. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.
• Use tongs or a slotted spoon to remove the taquitos from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
• Repeat with the remaining taquitos until they are all fried.
• Transfer the fried taquitos to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, until heated through and crispy.
• Serve hot with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, sour cream, or salsa. Enjoy!
