Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Chicken Filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, grated cheddar cheese, salt, ground cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- 2
Heat the Tortillas
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable. This prevents them from cracking when rolled.
Rolling and Frying
- 3
Assemble the Flautas
Take one warmed tortilla and place about 2 tablespoons of the chicken filling along one edge. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and secure it with a toothpick if necessary. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

Fry the Flautas
In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the rolled flautas, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Plate and Garnish
Arrange the crispy flautas on a serving platter. Serve with sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and a sprinkle of chopped fresh cilantro on top.
