Baked Creamy Chicken Taquitos

I've been bookmarking taquito recipes since forever. I think they're the most delish little taco-like things. I finally got around to following through on making one of the booked marked recipes! I only had 2 tortillas left over however, so they're more just like rolled up tacos instead of skinny taquitos. I've recently found a website called chef-in-training which has a lot of yummy looking things on it. This is where I found the taquito recipe I made today! 

It may seem like a lot of work for a lunch dish, but I had defrosted chicken the night before which I didn't end up using, so I just marinated it with some chili powder, olive oil, lemon, garlic, salt and pepper and then tossed it in the oven. When it was done I shredded it with a fork.

I cut the recipe in half because I knew I only had two tortillas... probably should have cut it down a little more so my taquitos weren't so thick, but oh well! As for following the recipe:

  • I didn't have green salsa, so I just used some 'regular' salsa that I had in the fridge. 
  • I didn't have any cilantro and didn't feel like going to get any so I just skipped that. 
  • I didn't have any Mexican flavoured cheese, so I just used regular cheddar! 
They're delicious. But definitely let them cool first as I just aggressively burned myself.
