Description
Delicious cream cheese taquitos filled with shredded chicken, cheese, and green chilis, perfect for a quick meal or appetizer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 3 cups shredded chicken
- 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1 4-ounce can green chilis
- 24 small flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the room temperature cream cheese, ranch dressing, shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, and green chilis. Mix with a spoon or spatula until well combined.
- For each taquito, lay a tortilla flat on the counter and spoon about 1/3 cup of chicken filling, spreading it into a line across the tortilla from one side to the other. Roll up the taquito tightly around the chicken mixture and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet seam side down.
- Continue assembling all the taquitos, then brush with melted butter using a pastry brush.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 10 minutes on one side, then flip the taquitos and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, ranch dressing, fresh cilantro, and diced tomatoes.
Notes
- Enjoy your taquitos fresh out of the oven for the best taste.
- Feel free to customize toppings based on your preference.
