Mini Chicken Taquitos 🌮
These crispy low-carb Mini Chicken Taquitos are a perfect snack or appetizer for a keto lifestyle. Made with shredded chicken, salsa, cream cheese, and cheddar, then fried until golden brown.
Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Large skillet
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups shredded cooked chicken (like rotisserie chicken)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 14 small low-carb flour tortillas (street taco size)
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 0.5 cup salsa your favorite
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil (for frying)
- Homemade guacamole (optional, for dipping)
Instructions
- Combine the shredded chicken, salsa, and softened cream cheese in a mixing bowl. Stir until everything is well mixed.
- Lay out a tortilla. Sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese on one half, then add a spoonful of the chicken mixture over the cheese.
- Starting from the cheese and chicken side, tightly roll the tortilla like a small cigar. Repeat this for all 14 tortillas.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the avocado oil. Carefully place the rolled taquitos seam-side down in the skillet. You might need to cook them in two batches.
- Fry the taquitos, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
- Serve your crispy taquitos immediately with guacamole on the side, if desired.
