Method
Flautas Directions
- 1

In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken, shredded cheese, and salt until well combined.

Assemble the Flautas
Place about 2 tablespoons of the chicken and cheese mixture in the center of each tortilla. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and secure with a toothpick if necessary.

Fry the Flautas
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the flautas seam-side down in the oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Drain and Serve
Remove the flautas from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with guacamole, sour cream, and salsa on the side.
