Yummy Taquitos

Found this recipe online and tried it...it's so good!

"I've always loved taquitos but it's not the healthiest dish which has kept me away from them for some time now. I created this recipe for healthy taquitos because it's fast, easy and has the crunch of real deep-fried taquitos. I use a store-bought rotiseree chicken and shred the breast meat which makes the recipe go even faster.

Difficulty: Easy

Things You'll Need:

* Two cooked chicken breasts shredded (I use a market-bought rotiseree chicken)
* Shredded "mexican" cheese
* 1/2 cup chicken stocks
* 1 dozen corn tortillas
* cooking spray

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Heat chicken broth in a small skillet until simmering.

Working quickly, dip a corn tortilla in the simmering broth so each sides get wet. Add a small amount of chicken and cheese to the bottom 1/2 of the tortilla. Roll and place, taquito seam-side down on the cookie sheet. Repeat until you make all 12 taquitos.


When all taquitos are on cookie sheet, spray the tops of all the taquitos with cooking spray. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until desired crispness.

Tortilla should be in the broth for no more than a couple of seconds when you're dipping it."

I'm not sure why the recipe says to dip it in chicken storck before you roll it. I did the first one and it got crumbly. I did therest without dipping it in the stock, and it was just as good as the one that i did dip in the stock. I had made chicken breasts yesterday, so I just pulled apart the chicken then mixed it in a bowl with salsa, reduced fat shredded cheese, onions, chopped jalapeno and bell peppers. I rolled it into the corn tortillas, laid them seam down on the sheet, sprayed them with cooking spray, and put it in the oven for about 10 mins.

I dipped them in fat free sour cream, salsa, and a bit of avocado.
