Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken breast shredded
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 13-15 corn tortillas
Instructions
- Put the chicken, sauce, garlic, and sour cream in a mixing bowl and mix thoroughly.
- Warm the corn tortillas in the microwave between 2 damp paper towels. Corn tortillas can be a bit tricky to roll, so make sure they are warm and flexible before you start.
- Add 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture to each corn tortilla shell and roll the taquitos. Keep pinned closed with toothpicks as needed.
- Place taquitos in the air fryer basket on one layer. Spritz them with a spray bottle of oil to make them crispier.
- Cook on 370 for 9-10 minutes or until crispy and golden.
- Let cool a bit before serving.

Notes
- You can also use chicken thighs for this recipe or a store-bought rotisserie chicken to make the taquitos.
- Use a small cookie scoop to portion the chicken mixture onto the tortillas. This way, you'll keep your hands cleaner, and every taquito will have the same amount of filling.
- To avoid soggy taquitos,make sure the chicken mixture isn't too wet.
- Corn tortillas are more traditional, but flour tortillas work too.
