Chicken Lime Taquitos Recipes

Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients for marinade.
• Marinate chicken in mixture for at least 2 hours.
• Drain chicken well and grill (I use indoor grill) until done. Allow to cool and shred into 1/8 inch by 3 inch pieces.
• Place chicken in bowl and sprinkle with salt and minced garlic. Mix well.
• Add red pepper, pasilla, onion, cheese and 1/2 ounce lime juice. Mix thoroughly.
• To assemble, warm tortilla on griddle until soft and pliable. If necessary, add a little oil to the pan to help soften the tortillas.
• Spoon 2 ounces of chicken filling over tortilla and roll tightly, securing with toothpick.
• Deep-fry in oil at 350ºF for 2 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
• Drain well.
• Serve with guacamole, sour cream, and or salsa.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Combine the chicken and cheese in a bowl; stir in the hot pepper sauce. Warm the tortillas one at a time in a skillet over medium heat until flexible about 10 seconds per side.
• Spread about 1 heaping tablespoon of the chicken over half of the warmed tortilla. Roll tightly to form the taquito starting at the filled side of the tortilla. Place seamed side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven.

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, chili powder and garlic powder. Add shredded chicken to the mixing bowl and let it marinate in the fridge for at least a 1/2 hour, but preferably a half day or so.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spread chicken mixture evenly between flour tortillas, top with cheese and roll up tightly, placing seam side down on a baking sheet. Spray the tops of the taquitos with nonstick cooking spray (or brush with a little vegetable oil). Bake for 15-20 minutes or until tortillas are golden brown.
• Whisk together enchilada sauce and sour cream and serve with taquitos.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Combine shredded chicken, 1/2 of the pepper Jack cheese, Cheddar cheese, 2 tablespoons sour cream, 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce, cilantro, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and onion powder in a medium bowl; mix well.
• Place equal amounts of filling onto each tortilla, roll tightly to close, and place seam-side down onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Turn taquitos over, sprinkle with remaining pepper Jack cheese, and bake until cheese is melted and taquitos are crispy, about 5 more minutes.
• While taquitos are baking, mix sour cream and hot pepper sauce together in a small bowl for dipping sauce. Serve with taquitos.

Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients for marinade.
