Directions
Flautas De Pollo With Avocado Cream, This is my favorite Mexican dish I have been searching for a recipe for years but all fell short Then one Saturday morning i saw this on cooking for real with Sunny Anderson It’s just pure heaven It got it’s name because of it’s long thin shape Flauta is Spanish for Flute, I tried this last night, it was amazing, used corn tortillas, they hold up way better during the frying process, Fantastic dish!! I LOVE the avocado cream sauce, I adjusted the spices a bit (especially cilantro and salt) to taste and used my deep fryer Leftovers were great, and I even froze the last of them and cooked them a couple weeks later and they were still very tasty! Thanks for sharing!
