Method

Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Filling

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, black beans, half of the shredded cheese, and chopped cilantro. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Assemble the Taquitos

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Lightly warm each corn tortilla in the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side to make them pliable. Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling mixture on one end of each tortilla and roll it tightly, securing the filling inside.

Fry the Taquitos

In the same skillet, add olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the rolled taquitos seam-side down in the skillet. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serve

Serve the taquitos warm with a side of sour cream and salsa for dipping.
