Ingredients for Three Beef or Chicken Taquitos
Method
Cooking Directions for Three Beef or Chicken Taquitos
Prepare the Filling
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or shredded chicken until fully cooked. Season with salt, pepper, and chili powder to taste. Stir in half of the shredded cheese until melted. Remove from heat.
Assemble the Taquitos
Heat corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 10 seconds on each side until warm and pliable. Place about 2 tablespoons of the beef or chicken mixture at one end of each tortilla, sprinkle with some cheese, and roll tightly. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.
Fry the Taquitos
In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the rolled taquitos (in batches if necessary) and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serve
Serve the taquitos warm with guacamole and sour cream on the side for dipping.
