Flautas
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Filling
In a bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, salt, ground cumin, and garlic powder. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly seasoned.

Assemble the Flautas
Take a corn tortilla and place about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture and a sprinkle of cheese at one end. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and secure with a toothpick if necessary. Repeat this process for all tortillas.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. You can test the oil by dropping a small piece of tortilla; it should sizzle immediately.

Fry the Flautas
Carefully add the rolled flautas to the hot oil, seam side down. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.

Serve the hot flautas with sour cream and salsa on the side for dipping.
