AIR FRYER CHICKEN TAQUITOS
These taquitos are air fried, which makes them healthier than deep fried ones. Using shredded rotisserie chicken provides a quick prep but you can always use home-cooked chicken. Serve with sides of sour cream, Mexican tomato sauce, and guacamole, or your choice of sides.

- Working with one tortilla at a time, place 2 tablespoons of shredded chicken on one end of the tortilla. Place 1 tablespoon shredded cheese on top of the chicken.
