Air Fryer Chicken Taquitos

30 minute meals

Thank you isabel eats for the recipe!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken 

  • ½ Tbsp chili powder

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp ground cumin

  • ½ tsp onion powder

  • Salt (to taste)

  • 1 + ½ cups shredded cheese

  • 14 corn tortillas

  • Cooking spray 

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, add the shredded chicken, chili powder, garlic powder, ground cumin, onion powder, and salt. Toss the ingredients and taste and season with more salt, if necessary. 

  2. Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and heat them in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, flipping them halfway through. 

  3. Place a heaping spoonful of shredded chicken and shredded cheese onto each tortilla. Tightly roll up the tortillas and secure them closed by threading a toothpick along the seam. 

  4. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Place the taquitos in a single layer in the basket seam-side down. You might have to cook them in multiple batches. Spray the taquitos with cooking spray, then air fry them for 2 more minutes. Transfer them to a plate and repeat with the remaining taquitos. 

  5. Remove the toothpicks and serve with shredded lettuce, pico de gallo, crema, and guacamole.
