Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 c shredded rotisserie chicken
45 corn tortillas, room temp
1/2 c canola oil, for frying
salt
SOUTHWESTERN DIP
2 c sour cream
1 c mayonnaise
1 Tbsp parsley
1 Tbsp dried onion flakes
1 Tbsp dried chives
1 Tbsp cumin
1 tsp jalapeno salt (or regular salt)
1/2 Tbsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp white pepper, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Mix sour cream and mayonnaise together in a bowl. Mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Add dry spices to sour cream and mayonnaise mixture stir to combine, cover & refrigerate for 2 hours to allow flavors to meld. Can be made day before.
  • 2. Taquito instructions: Heat oil in frying pan. Add one corn tortilla and fry for just a second, then turn and repeat. Place tortilla on a paper towel lined cookie sheet fitting about 6-8 per sheet. Place another paper towel over the tortillas and repeat with the rest until all are cooked. Sprinkle Salt over the tortillas as you go.
  • 3. Once all the tortillas have been lightly fried and are soft, take shredded chicken and place on center of tortilla in a line. Gently roll tight and place seam side down on another cookie sheet, each one snug to the other to keep shape. Repeat until all the taquitos are rolled.
  • 4. Heat an electric skillet or griddle between 300-350 degrees and oil surface generously. Place one taquito seam side down, add another right up against it and continue until you have a row across the skillet and taquitos are secure. Continue another row if you have room (I can generally cook about 25-30 at a time) Check the first taquito by rolling or using tongs to make sure seam is secure before turning. Roll taquitos left to right and let them cook 1-2 minutes, then roll again until they are secure and golden.
  • 5. Serving: This recipe makes 45 nice size taquitos. I will cut them in half as appetizers. Place Dip in the middle of a tray or large plate and surround the taquitos around the dip.

Time 32m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups cooked shredded chicken ((I use rotisserie))
6 ounces cream cheese (, softened)
1/4 cup salsa (, your favorite kind)
1/4 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup baby spinach leaves (, chopped)
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
salt and freshly ground black pepper (for taste)
15-20 corn or flour tortillas
guacamole, sour cream, salsa, hot sauce

Steps:

  • Add cream cheese, salsa and sour cream to a mixing bowl and stir until smooth. Add remaining ingredients (except the tortillas) and toss to combine. Taste and add more seasoning, if needed.
  • For corn tortillas, heat a non-stick griddle over medium high heat. Cook tortillas for about 15 - 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable. Remove tortillas to a plate covered with tinfoil to keep them warm and pliable.
  • Place a large spoonful of filling in a line along each tortilla and roll tightly. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
  • Baked Taquitos: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray the tops of the tacos with cooking spray , or brush them lightly with oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the shells are crispy.
  • Fried Taquitos: Add about 1 1/2 inches of oil to a large skillet and heat to medium-high. Once hot (the tortillas should sizzle immediately when added to the oil). Fry the taquitos in small batches, for a few seconds on each side, rotating them as they cook, until they are golden and crispy on all sides. Place them on a paper towel lined plate.
  • Serve taquitos with guacamole, salsa and sour cream.

V'S SOFT TURKEY TAQUITOS WITH SOUTHWESTERN DIP



V's Soft Turkey Taquitos With Southwestern Dip image

Every year my dad would make these taquitos with leftover turkey. The corn tortillas are lightly fried in oil, rolled with turkey and sealed on a griddle and come out soft with a nice crunch with the turkey still moist and delicious. These are awesome because they are not deep fried or baked. I took over the tradition and have been making these for years. My family won't eat any leftover turkey in any other form except these soft taquitos. We look forward to these as an appetizer or a meal served with my own Southwestern Dip, Cheese Sauce, Salsa and my Chunky Guacomole the day after thanksgiving.

GREAT CHICKEN TAQUITOS

Provided by wadeg

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Wraps and Rolls

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup water
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
3 ½ cups vegetable oil (such as Crisco®), divided
1 cup finely chopped tomatoes
½ cup minced green onions
6 tablespoons chicken broth
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon salt
12 (6 inch) corn tortillas
12 wooden picks
1 cup shredded lettuce, or to taste
¼ cup guacamole, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring water to a simmer in a skillet over medium heat; add chicken. Cover skillet and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken from water and cool; shred with a fork.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chicken, tomatoes, green onions, chicken broth, flour, garlic, cumin, oregano, chili powder, and salt until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Heat remaining vegetable oil in a heavy 10-inch skillet over medium heat; carefully dip tortillas in the hot oil to soften, about 1 minute. Remove tortillas with tongs and drain on paper towels, reserving oil. Heat oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Spoon about 2 tablespoons chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Tightly roll each tortilla around the filling and secure with a wooden toothpick.
  • Fry rolled-up tortillas, working in batches, in hot oil until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove taquitos with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve taquitos on a bed of shredded lettuce with guacamole on the side.
