Hello everybody, hope you are having an incredible day today. Today, I will show you a way to make a special dish, taquitos. It is one of my favorites food recipes. For mine, I’m gonna make it a little bit unique. This will be really delicious.
Taquitos is one of the most well liked of current trending meals on earth. It’s simple, it is quick, it tastes yummy. It’s appreciated by millions every day. Taquitos is something which I have loved my entire life. They are nice and they look wonderful.
In a large bowl, combine chicken, cream cheese, chipotle and sauce, cumin, and chili powder. Corn tortillas are tightly rolled around a cheesy chicken mixture and baked until crisp. Serve these baked taquitos as an appetizer with salsa or top with lettuce, tomato, and sour cream for a main course.
To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have taquitos using 10 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Taquitos:
- Get 1 tbsp Vegetable oil, plus more for brushing on the taquitos.
- Make ready 1 Onion, finely chopped
- Make ready 1 clove Garlic, minced
- Make ready 1 lb Ground beef
- Prepare 1/2 cup Salsa. (I don't like salsa so I use mild taco sauce)
- Take 2 tsp Chili powder
- Take 1/2 tsp Salt
- Prepare 1/4 tsp Pepper
- Make ready 10 6-inch flour tortillas
- Get 1 packages Shredded cheese. I like the taco blend but you can use whatever you like.
Two Southern California restaurants are often given credit for their roles in the early development of the taquito. The great thing is this taquito recipe is versatile so you can use any type of meat - beef taquitos, chicken taquitos or pork - as long as it shreds easily. Taquitos are so good that it would be a crime to confine them just to dinner. It is for exactly that reason that the wonderful breakfast taquito was born.
Steps to make Taquitos:
- Heat the oven to 400°F. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook them for 3 minutes, stirring often. Add the beef, and use a wooden spoon or a spatula to break it up while it cooks, until it is no longer red, about 3 minutes. Stir in the salsa, chili powder, and the salt and pepper. Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
- Place the tortillas on a plate and cover them with damp paper towels. Microwave them until warm and pliable, about 45 seconds. Top each tortilla with 1/4 cup of the beef mixture, spreading it to an inch from the edges. Sprinkle cheese evenly over the beef.
- Roll up the tortillas and place them on a foil-lined baking sheet with the seam sides down. Brush the taquitos lightly with vegetable oil, then bake them until the filling is heated through and the tortillas are lightly browned, about 8-12 minutes. Serve hot with sour cream, salsa or nacho cheese. They're even yummy plain!
Think of it as a miniature breakfast. The taquitos shown in these pictures were fried, although I've made this recipe both ways so it's really up to your personal preference! You'll want to remove the toothpicks before you serve them, and you can add any variety of toppings and dipping sauces. (Taquitos is just the diminutive for tacos) By the way, tacos are also usually rolled tortillas, not the funny toast thing. Tacos are rolled, that is jut what a taco is, a rolled tortilla. and flautas can also be corn tortillas, usually longer than a regular corn tortilla and fried. Serve them hot with sour cream and/or salsa.
