Preparation: 15 minutes
Cooking: 20 minutes
Total: 35 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup salsa
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 flour tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cheese, onion, cilantro, salsa, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

  2. Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave for about 20 seconds to make them more pliable. Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla, slightly off-center. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and secure with toothpicks.

  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Carefully add the flautas to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  4. Remove the flautas from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Remove the toothpicks before serving.

  5. Serve the chicken flautas with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sour cream, salsa, or guacamole.
