CHICKEN FLAUTAS
Steps:
- In a pot, cover chicken with water. Add onion, jalapenos, and one teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil and simmer until tender, about 1 hour. Remove meat from pot and cool. Pull chicken apart into small pieces. Chicken should be continuously pulled apart until string-like consistency. In a deep pan, heat the oil to about 375 to 400 degrees F. Dip corn tortillas into hot oil for 1/2 a second or until tortilla is soft. Lay the shredded chicken in the middle of the corn tortillas. Add enough meat to make sure you taste the flavor of the meat and the corn tortilla. Roll the tortilla up and put toothpick through the middle of the flauta to hold in place. Once rolled, deep fry each flauta in the oil already heated (used to soften the corn tortillas) until corn tortillas turn to a golden brown or to your preference. Allow cooling off time. Remove toothpicks and serve 6 flautas on a plate with salsa or guacamole.
CHICKEN FLAUTAS WITH AVOCADO CREAM
Steps:
- Fill a large pot with enough oil to reach 2 inches up the side of the pan. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reads 375 degrees F. To make the flautas: In a pan over medium heat melt butter and saute onions and jalapenos until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, cumin, and cayenne pepper and cook until fragrant, another 2 minutes. Add chicken and salsa; stir to combine. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro, cheese and lime juice. Let cool slightly.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
- Working with 4 tortillas at a time, spread a heaping spoonful along the middle of each tortilla. Roll tortilla tightly around the filling and secure with a toothpick. Using tongs, hold each flauta in hot oil until firm, then release to continue cooking. Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes, then remove to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately season with salt. Keep flautas warm in the oven on a sheet tray while assembling and cooking the remaining tortillas.
- To make the Avocado Cream: In a serving bowl, mash avocado, sour cream and lime juice until smooth. Season with salt, to taste.
- To serve, arrange flautas on a platter of shredded lettuce and serve with Avocado Cream on the side.

Steps:
- Scoop the avocado flesh into a blender. Add the sour cream and the juice of 1/2 lime and pulse until smooth. Season with salt.
- Squeeze the remaining 1/2 lime over the radishes in a small bowl and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toss the chicken with 3/4 cup salsa in a medium bowl.
- Heat 3/4 inch of vegetable oil in a Dutch oven or large skillet over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, wrap the tortillas in paper towels and microwave until soft, about 45 seconds. Spoon the chicken mixture down the middle of the tortillas. Fold in the ends and roll up like a burrito; secure with toothpicks.
- Working in batches, fry the flautas in the oil, turning as needed, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with tongs; drain on paper towels and remove the toothpicks. Serve with the avocado cream, radishes, cilantro, lime wedges and the remaining 3/4 cup salsa.

FLAUTAS WITH SHREDDED CHICKEN
Flautas means "little flutes" in spanish and refers to the shape of these crispy filled tortillas. The chicken in flavored with chiles, onion, and tomato. At first I was a bit worried about the chicken being too spicy, but once it was cooked with the tortilla wrapped around it the heat was just perfect for us. You might consider using less chiles.

Steps:
- In a frying pan over medium-high heat, warm the tablespoon oil. Add the onion, chiles, and garlic and saute until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in teh tomato and continue to cook, stirry constantly, until the mixture thickens and the color changes, about 3 minutes. Fold in the chicken, season to taste with sea salt, and heat thoroughly. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Place a heavy frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Lay a tortilla on the pan a few seconds until hot. Transfer it to a plate and arrange several tablespoons of the chicken filling across the lower third of the tortilla. Tightly roll the tortilla up into a tube to make a flauta, secure with a toothpick and set aside. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. (I usually fry them as I make them to cut down on prep time and keep the tortillas from cracking).
- In a bowl, toss the lettuce with the lime juice. Spread it out on a serving plate or on individual plates, dividing it evenly.
- Pour oil to a depth of at least 3/4 inch into a deep heavy frying pan and heat over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers and registers 350 on a deep-frying thermometer. Add the flautas, a few at a time, and fry until crisp and pale gold on all sides, about 4 minutes. Using tongs, transfer them to paper towels to drain. Keep warm in a low oven while frying the rest.
- Place al lthe flautas on the lettuce on the platter, or arrange 2 or 3 flautas on each plate. Spoon 1/2 cup salsa across the flautas in a ribbon, then top with the crema and the radishes. Serve at once, accompanied with more salsa, crema, and guacamole if desired.

MEXICAN CHICKEN FLAUTAS
I got out this recipe out of the paper from a well known restaurant in our area. I made them tonight and the family loved them so decided to post the recipe!! Hope you enjoy them :) I added a few more spices as called for and played with it. I also warmed the corn tortillas before putting the meat in and frying them. Time is for all the cooking and rest of steps! I also added a touch of garlic powder and onion powder with the other seasonings. Next time I might also add cheddar or mexican cheese to some and see how that would taste too, Yummy :)

- If you're poaching the chicken, add 2 chicken breasts to a saucepan and cover with cold tap water. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to let simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. You can optionally add some flavoring to the water -- for this batch I added salt, pepper, onion and cilantro. Once cooked, set the chicken breasts aside to cool and then use two forks to shred them.
- To make the Avocado Salsa Verde, start by removing the husks and stems from the tomatillos. Give them a good rinse and roast them in a 400F oven until they start to turn army green in color, approx. 10-15 minutes.
- Add the roasted tomatillos to a blender along with 1/2 onion, 1 garlic clove, 10-12 sprigs cilantro, and 2 serrano peppers (or less if you want a milder version). Combine well and taste for heat level, adding more serrano if you want more heat. Add the flesh of the avocado to the blender and combine well. Salt to taste.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the following ingredients: 2 cups shredded cheese, 1/4 onion finely chopped, 1/2 cup pickled jalapenos finely chopped, 2 teaspoons chili powder, 2 teaspoons Mexican oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, freshly cracked black pepper. Mix together well.

- In a medium size skillet heat the olive oil. Add onion and garlic and cook until onion is softened, about 3 minutes. Add corn to skillet and cook for another 2 minutes. Add shredded chicken, salsa and sour cream, stir and cook for about 3 more minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cheese.
- Warm the tortillas in the microwave for about 30 seconds so that they're easier to roll. The chicken mixture should be enough to fill 10 tortillas.
- Butter a 9x13 inch baking with some of the melted butter. Lay a tortilla flat and top with a couple tablespoons of the chicken mixture. Tightly roll up the tortilla and place it in the baking dish. Brush with melted butter. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

- Make the Quick Pickled Red Onion: Place the sliced red onion in a small bowl. Add the vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Cover and let stand at room temperature while you make your flautas.
- Add the cooked chicken to a skillet over medium-low heat. Pour salsa over-top, then the water. Stir to combine. Cover the skillet and allow the chicken to warm with the salsa and water for 4-5 minutes. (The water should have been absorbed. If not, cook uncovered for a minute or so to cook it off). Remove the chicken mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or alternately just in a bowl with two forks). Run the mixer on low for a minute or two to shred the chicken. Set aside.
- Place a large tortilla on a cutting board. Cut the rounded edges off from each side, making a rectangle (see Step by Step photos above the recipe card). Place a row of the shredded chicken down the centre of the rectangle, then roll the tortilla up around it, rolling from the longer side. Place it seam side down, so it doesn't un-roll. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Heat a 1/2 inch of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. (I like to cook just one at a time, in a small skillet. They cook up quickly and you don't need as much oil to get the 1/2 inch in a smaller skillet). Add one of the rolled tortillas to the skillet, seam side down. Allow to cook about 30- 45 seconds, then begin rolling it a quarter turn and allowing it to brown a bit before rolling it a quarter turn again, until the tortilla is evenly golden all around. Remove to a cooling rack and repeat with the remaining rolls.
