creamy Chicken Taquitos

Here’s a recipe for creamy chicken taquitos:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken works well)
• 4 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 12 small flour tortillas
• Cooking spray or olive oil

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped cilantro, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
4. Spoon a few tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla, spreading it out in a line along one edge.
5. Roll up the tortillas tightly around the filling to form taquitos. Place them seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken mixture.
7. Lightly spray the tops of the taquitos with cooking spray or brush them with olive oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
8. Bake the taquitos in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
9. Remove the taquitos from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
10. Serve the creamy chicken taquitos hot, garnished with additional chopped cilantro and your favorite dipping sauce (such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream) on the side.
