Categories     Appetizer     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 onion (diced)
1 large or 2 small jalapeño peppers (finely chopped)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 1/2 cups shredded chicken
1/2 cup salsa
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 1/2 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
10-12 corn tortillas
1/2 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Prepare the chicken filling: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once heated, add in the onion, jalapeño peppers, salt, chili powder, and cumin. Sauté for a few minutes until softened. Stir in the shredded chicken, salsa, and lime juice. Remove from heat.
  • Prepare the tortillas: Warm the tortillas by wrapping the stack of them in damp paper towels and microwaving for a minute.
  • Prepare the flautas: Place about 2 tablespoons each of chicken filling and a sprinkling of cheese in the middle of each tortilla. Roll the tortillas up tightly and place them seam side down on a plate.
  • Fry: Heat 1/4 cup of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place 4 flautas in the pan, seam side down, and fry for about 1-2 minutes. Then, flip the flautas and fry for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Add the remaining vegetable oil to the pan as needed and repeat this process with the remaining flautas.
  • Serve: Serve the flautas with your favorite toppings such as lettuce, cilantro, salsa, and sour cream.
