Baked Chicken Taquitos during a busy weeknight because I’m not dealing with the mess of frying them one by one 🤷♀️ These taquitos are easy, crispy, cheesy, and so good. Baked Chicken Taquitos Ingredients • 1½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast • 1 packet taco seasoning, divided • 1–2 tbsp oil • ⅓ cup sour cream • 2 cups shredded Colby Jack cheese • 20–22 small corn tortillas • Cooking spray For serving: • Guacamole • Pico de gallo • Sour cream • Cotija cheese • Fresh cilantro Instructions 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with foil. 2. Drizzle the chicken with oil and season both sides with half of the taco seasoning. 3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from the skillet and shred. 4. Add the shredded chicken back to the skillet along with the remaining taco seasoning and ⅓ cup sour cream. Mix until everything is creamy and well combined, then remove from the heat and let cool slightly. 5. Stir in 2 cups of shredded Colby Jack cheese. 6. Wrap the corn tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30–45 seconds, or until warm and pliable. Keep them covered while assembling so they don’t crack. 7. Add a heaping tablespoon of the chicken filling to each tortilla. Roll tightly and place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. 8. Lightly spray the taquitos with cooking spray. 9. Bake for 20–22 minutes, until the edges are golden and crispy. For a little extra crispiness, broil for the last 1–2 minutes. 10. Serve warm with guacamole, pico de gallo, sour cream, Cotija cheese and fresh cilantro. #chicken #taquitos #baked #chickentaquitos #easydinner
