BAKED BEEF TAQUITOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• Add cooked rice, water, bell pepper, and garlic to the beef in the skillet; stir and cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Spoon onto tortillas and roll to close. Place taquitos tightly against each other in an 8x12-inch baking pan. Pour salsa over and top with Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 25 minutes.

• Take from heat and stir in cilantro and chicken. Set aside.
• IF YOU ARE USING FLOUR TORTILLAS:.
• Lay tortilla on work surface and spread 2 or 3 tablespoons of chicken mixture over bottom third. Top with cheese and roll up.
• Place seam side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Spray or brush tortillas lightly with oil.
• Bake until crisp and lightly browned, 12-15 minutes. Serve immediately.
• IF YOU ARE USING CORN TORTILLAS.
• Bring chicken broth to a simmer in a skillet or pot wide enough to hold tortillas.
• Dip tortillas one at a time, briefly, just to soften, 1-2 seconds (I find it might take 3-4).

BAKED CHICKEN TAQUITOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a large baking pan with olive oil cooking spray.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tomatoes, onion, garlic, and jalapeno peppers, then stir in chicken broth, taco sauce, flour, cumin, oregano, chili powder, and salt. Cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes. Add shredded chicken, mixing vigorously until ingredients are well blended; cook until hot, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Wrap 8 tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave on high until soft and flexible, about 30 seconds. Repeat twice more to heat remaining tortillas.
• Spoon about 2 tablespoons chicken mixture down the center of a tortilla and sprinkle with Cheddar cheese. Roll tightly around the filling and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat to form remaining taquitos. Spray taquitos with cooking spray and sprinkle with remaining Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and taquitos are crispy, 20 to 22 minutes.
• Place shredded lettuce on a serving platter and arrange taquitos on top. Serve with sour cream and guacamole.
