Baked Chicken Taquitos

So...let me start by saying this recipe is not exactly a looker...its a little messy, but it is absolutely DELICIOUS!!



Start with about 2 Cups, Chopped, Rotisserie Chicken.


Add 1/2 C Chopped Red Onion.


Add 2 Tbl. Chopped, Pickled Jalapenos. 


Then add 2 Tbl. taco seasoning.  Any brand is fine, but my favorite is Lawry's


Finally stir in 1/2 Cup Shredded Mexican Cheese Blend (Any kind of cheese is fine) and 1/2 C Chopped Cilantro.  



To make taquitos, dip each corn tortilla into peanut oil and then fill with 2 Tbl. of the mixture and roll tightly.  If your mixture seems too dry, mix in a few tablespoons of salsa.  Place seem side down on cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 15 minutes.  Don't worry if the tortillas break open, they will still taste great. 


I served mine with guacamole and Mexican sour cream (its sour cream mixed with taco seasoning).
