Chicken And Cream Cheese Taquitos Recipe 455

CREAM CHEESE AND CHICKEN TAQUITOS RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Heat ½-inch oil in a sauce pan on medium heat. In a large bowl mix together the chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, salsa, colby jack and spinach. Add salt and pepper to taste. Once oil is hot enough (place hand over pan, above oil, to feel heat), add a few tablespoons of chicken/cream cheese mixture to the center of a tortilla and spread out. Roll up and set seam side down in oil using tongs. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat until all the tortillas are filled, rolled and fried. Set on paper towels to drain.

CRISPY CHICKEN TAQUITOS

Steps:

• Add enough oil to a heavy bottom straight-sided pan to come 2 inches up the sides. Heat over medium heat to 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer.
• Meanwhile, mix together the chicken, Cheddar, 1/2 cup salsa and the cumin in a medium bowl. Spoon about a 1/4 cup of the mixture into the center of each tortilla. Roll the tortillas tightly around the filling and secure with a toothpick.
• Working in batches of 2 or 3 at a time, place the taquitos in the hot oil and fry, flipping as needed to brown evenly, until crispy and golden brown, about 3 minutes. Using tongs, remove the taquitos to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Continue with the remaining taquitos. Serve alongside salsa and sour cream for dipping, if desired.

CREAMY BAKED CHICKEN TAQUITOS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheet with foil.

• Lightly brush each tortilla on both sides with olive oil or spray with cooking spray. Place 2 tablespoons chicken mixture in center of each tortilla. Roll up; place on cookie sheet, seam side down.
• Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve immediately.

CHICKEN TAQUITOS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, cheese, green salsa, and onion. Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the mixture onto tortillas, or enough so that when rolled up, each one is about 1 inch wide. Filling should not come to close to the ends, or it will fall out. Secure rolls with toothpicks.
• Fry rolls 4 or 5 at a time so there is enough room between them for even cooking. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Once they float, I leave them in for about another minute. If the taquitos are not crisp when cool, you haven't cooked them long enough. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sour cream, salsa and guacamole for dipping.

• Spread about 1 heaping tablespoon of the chicken over half of the warmed tortilla. Roll tightly to form the taquito starting at the filled side of the tortilla. Place seamed side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven.
