Taquito Filling
Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Filling
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, green salsa, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Fill the Tortillas
On a clean surface, place a tortilla, add about 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken filling to the center, and roll it tightly. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
Bake the Taquitos
Place the rolled taquitos seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray or brush them with oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce or toppings.
