Baked Chicken Taquitos

These have become one of our family favorites. They get eaten quickly!! They are great with homemade salsa!


Baked Chicken Taquitos
1 (8 oz) pkg. cream cheese, softened
½ C. salsa, red or green
1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
½ tsp. onion powder
½ tsp. garlic powder
3 Tbsp. cilantro, chopped
1 green onion, sliced finely
1 C. cheddar or Monterey jack cheese, shredded
10 flour tortillas, taco size or 25-30 small fajita size
2 C. chicken, cooked and shredded
Cooking spray
Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray. (or line sheet with a silicone mat)
In a medium sized bowl combine first 7 ingredients and mix well. Then add in cilantro and green onion. Add chicken and cheese and stir until incorporated. Heat the flour tortillas in a microwave with a damp paper towel covering them to make them pliable about 45-60 seconds.. Take 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture and place on the lower third of tortilla (use only 1 Tbsp for small tortillas). Keep the mixture about ½ inch from the edge, and roll up tightly. Place seam side down on baking sheet. Continue with all tortillas. Spray tops with cooking spray. Place in oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Serve with sour cream, salsa, and guacamole.
