Flautas

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, roasted red peppers, grilled corn, mild Cheddar cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese. Stir well to combine.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Flautas

    Take a flour tortilla and place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and secure with a toothpick if necessary. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

  3. 3

    Fry the Flautas

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the flautas to the skillet, seam side down. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the flautas hot with jalapeño jelly for dipping, alongside Spanish rice and your choice of beans.
