Warm the flour tortillas slightly in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds to make them more pliable.
Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla.
Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling, making sure to tuck in the ends as you roll to keep the filling inside.
Place the rolled taquitos seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the Taquitos:
Lightly spray or brush the taquitos with cooking spray or olive oil to help them crisp up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the taquitos are golden brown and crispy.
Serve:
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauces, such as salsa, sour cream, guacamole, or a creamy ranch dressing.
Tips:
For Extra Crunch: You can broil the taquitos for the last 1-2 minutes of baking to achieve an extra crispy texture.
Make Ahead: Prepare and roll the taquitos, then freeze them on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
Add Some Heat: For a spicy kick, mix some chopped jalapeños or hot sauce into the filling.
