Time 1h30m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, or more to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 cup sliced olives
1 (7 ounce) can chopped green chiles, drained
¾ cup water
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Mexican cheese blend
10 (6 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Place chicken in a single layer in the bottom of a large saucepan. Pour in cool water until chicken is covered by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 14 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a cutting board and shred meat with 2 forks when cool enough to handle. Discard poaching liquid.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add shredded chicken, olives, chiles, water, and taco seasoning; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Add Mexican cheese and stir until melted. Remove from heat.
  • Warm tortillas on a griddle over medium-high heat until soft, about 10 seconds per side. Add chicken filling to each tortilla, roll up tightly, and place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges are brown, about 30 minutes.

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 16 taquitos

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 lb ground beef, 80/20
1 cup white onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon cayenne
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cups shredded chicken, cooked
1 cup tomato, crushed or diced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon cayenne
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cups shredded parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded mexican cheese blend
lime wedge
sour cream
fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Once the beef is browned, add the onion and garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the salt, cumin, chili powder, cayenne, paprika, and oregano. Cook for 2-3 minutes more to allow the flavors to meld and ensure the beef is cooked through. Remove the beef mixture from the pan and set aside.
  • In a clean large saucepan over medium heat, combine the shredded chicken and crushed tomatoes. Add the salt, cumin, chili powder, cayenne, paprika, and oregano. Cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the Parmesan and Mexican-blend cheeses.
  • Heat a medium nonstick pan over medium heat. Add about ¼ cup (25 G) of cheese to the center of the pan and spread into a circle. Let the cheese melt, then add a spoonful of beef or chicken filling to the bottom of the circle.
  • Slide the cheese shell out of the pan onto a cutting board and let cool for 30 seconds, then roll tightly to encase the filling. The melted cheese should stick to the outside, sealing the taquito. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • Serve the taquitos with lime wedges, sour cream, and fresh cilantro.
  • Enjoy!

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 cups chicken, shredded
¼ cup jalapeño, diced
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups crema table cream
24 corn tortillas
oil, for frying
½ cup crema table cream
fresh cilantro
½ cup cotija cheese
avocado

Steps:

  • In a sauce pan, over medium-high heat, combine all taquito filling ingredients. Mix well and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Wrap tortillas in a damp towel and microwave for 15-20 seconds.
  • 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.
  • 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!)

  • Enjoy!
