‍🍴 Creamy Jalapeño Chicken Taquitos These crispy and cheesy taquitos are filled with a creamy and spicy jalapeno chicken filling. Perfect for a quick and tasty dinner. Ingredients: - 6 cups chicken (shredded) - ¼ cup jalapeño (diced) - 1 teaspoon cumin - 1 teaspoon garlic powder - 1 teaspoon salt - 1 ½ cups crema table cream - corn tortillas - oil (for frying) - ½ cup crema table cream - fresh cilantro - ½ cup cotija cheese - avocado Preparation: 1. In a sauce pan, over medium-high heat, combine all taquito filling ingredients. Mix well and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. 2. Wrap tortillas in a damp towel and microwave for 15-20 seconds. 3. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling across the tortilla about ⅓ of the way up from the bottom of the tortilla, and roll the tortilla around the filling. 4. Heat about ¼ inch (½ cm) of oil over medium-high heat. Carefully, place 3-4 taquitos in the oil, and cook for 3 minutes on each side. (Frying them seam side down first helps them stay closed during frying!) 5. Remove from the pan and drain excess oil on the taquito on a paper towel. 6. Place cooked taquitos on a bed of lettuce and garnish with crema, cilantro, cotija, and avocado. 🕒 Total Time: Under 30 minutes 👉 Follow @FoodSimp for more recipes!
