Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 8 small flour or corn tortillas
- 1/2 cup blue cheese or ranch dressing (for dipping)
- Oil (for frying, optional)
Instructions
- Mix the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce until well coated.
- Add shredded cheese and mix again.
- Warm the tortillas in a skillet or microwave to make them pliable.
- Place a generous amount of the buffalo chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla and roll tightly.
- If frying, heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the taquitos until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- If baking, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C), place the taquitos on a baking sheet, and bake for 15-20 minutes until crispy.
- Serve hot with blue cheese or ranch dressing for dipping.
Notes
For a healthier option, opt for baking instead of frying. Don’t overload the tortillas to get a perfect crunch.
