Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts cooked and shredded
- 1/4 cup taco sauce or mild salsa
- 1/4 cup Alfredo sauce or heavy cream
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- salt & pepper to taste
- 10 tortillas medium, fajita size
- nonstick cooking spray
- toppings: avocado, cilantro, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, etc..
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and set aside.
- In a large bowl, stir the chicken together with taco sauce, alfredo, cheese and seasonings.
- Divide the mixture into ten equal portions and fill the tortillas with filling, rolling tightly and placing the seam side down on the baking sheet.
- Spray chicken taquitos lightly with a nonstick cooking spray and bake for 15 minutes or until they are golden and as crispy as you'd like.
- Serve your chicken flautas warm with any desired toppings: salsa, guacamole, taco sauce, sour cream, cilantro, etc..
Notes
- Feel free to substitute 2 cans of chicken for the cooked and shredded chicken breasts. I used two costco-sized cans of chicken which was 25 oz. total. Rotisserie chicken with the skin removed also works great!
