Air Fryer Taquitos 2 Ways Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add green chiles and Mexican tomato sauce; stir to combine. Add chicken, Neufchatel cheese, and Mexican cheese blend. Cook and stir until cheeses have melted and mixture is completely warmed, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat tortillas in a skillet or directly on the grates of a gas stove until soft and pliable. Place 3 tablespoons of chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Fold over and roll into taquitos.
• Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place taquitos in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching, and mist with avocado oil. Cook in batches if necessary. Cook until golden brown and crispy, 6 to 9 minutes. Turn taquitos over, mist with avocado oil, and air fry for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large, high-walled skillet over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
• In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, diced celery, Frank's® RedHot® Buffalo 'N Ranch Thick Sauce, cream cheese, and salt until fully combined.
• In a small bowl, mix together the flour and water to create a paste.
• Stack the tortillas on a plate, cover with a damp paper towel, and microwave for 1 minute, until softened and warmed through.
• Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the lower third of a tortilla, then tightly roll up the tortilla, brushing a bit of flour paste on the edge of the tortilla to seal together. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Add 3-4 of the rolled taquitos at a time to the hot oil, seam-side down, and fry, turning halfway through, for 4 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
• Serve with more Frank's® RedHot® Buffalo 'N Ranch Thick Sauce for dipping.
• Enjoy!
