Directions
Baked Taquitos, I got this recipe off of a blog (bigboldbeautifulfood blogspot com) I have made it once and the flavour was really good, but it looked funny! The instructions are long but it is actually very simple and quick to make I am posting how the recipe is originally written (well almost) but you might want to add a bit more spice I served it with a spicy salsa and it tasted great The chicken broth is needed if you are using corn tortillas only , This was tasty with a little tweaking I followed the advice of other reviewers and added some chili powder and pepper It seemed a little dry toward the end so I also added about 2 tablespoons of lime juice –TIPS– 1 The broth idea does NOT work The tortillas will still be brittle and fall apart Instead, wrap a stack of corn tortillas in several layers of damp paper towels and microwave for about 30-45 seconds 2 DO NOT roll them too tightly When they are cooking, the filling will bubble and expand, and if you wrap them tightly, the taquitos will burst 3 Leave some space between each taquito This will allow them to get crispy on all sides 4 For an even better crispy texture, spread a little oil on the bottom of the pan, and then spray the tops of each taquito with cooking spray , These were good I did add some taco seasoning to the chicken used corn tortillas and tried dipping in broth They didn’t want to roll very easily and mostly tore apart I secured them with toothpicks and even that did really keep them closed Maybe I did something wrong In any case they were tasty and we enjoyed them I was just hoping we could eat them with our fingers and not a fork Thanks for posting the recipe
