Steps
- Combine ingredients. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken and cheese, stirring well to create a hearty filling that’s oozing with flavor.
- Warm tortillas. Heat the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 20-30 seconds on each side to soften them.
- Fill tortillas. Place a generous spoonful of the chicken filling on each tortilla and roll them tightly.
- Choose cooking method. Decide whether you’d like to bake, fry, or air-fry your taquitos. Preheat oven to 375°F for baking or 400°F for air-frying.
- Cook taquitos. For baking: Arrange rolled taquitos on a baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown. For air-frying: Lightly coat with oil and cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway. For frying: Heat oil and fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy.
- Optional: Serve with your favorite toppings like salsa or guacamole.

Notes
Ensure to heat the tortillas before rolling to prevent cracking. Avoid overstuffing to maintain the integrity of the taquitos.
