Steps:
- Add the Canola oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat, and wait for the oil to reach between 350°-375°. In the meantime, assemble the flautas.
- Mix the shredded chicken and cheese in a large bowl together and set aside until ready to use.
- Wrap a stack of 3-5 flour tortillas at a time in damp paper towel and place on a microwavable -safe plate. Microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute intervals, just until the tortillas are soft and pliable.
- Add about 2 tablespoons of filling to each tortillas and roll tightly. Once you have 3-4 flautas assembled, begin adding them to the oil one at a time.
- Gently add the flautas to the hot oil seam-side down, and using a pair of tongs, hold it in place for about 15 seconds. Fry for 30-45 seconds on each side, or until the flauta is golden in color. Set aside on a plate lined with paper towels, and repeat with remaining flautas.
- Serve with desired topping and enjoy!

CHICKEN FLAUTAS
Crispy Chicken Taco Rolls Tacos are an everyday event in Mexico with many different fillings. When tacos are rolled tightly and pan-fried until crisp so they resemble tubes or "flutes," they become flautas. This delicious, crunchy variation of tacos comes from Jalisco, Mexico, where it is a popular snack food. Here, chicken stewed with tomato sauce and onions is the filling of choice, but can be substituted for steak or pork. Whichever protein you choose, the flautas should be prepared and eaten right away for the best taste.

Steps:
- Step 1 Preheat oven to 200°F. Heat 2 tbsp. corn oil in medium skillet over medium- high heat. Add onions and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add tomato sauce; pour water into empty tomato sauce can and swirl before adding to pan; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes. Stir shredded chicken and cilantro into skillet; cook, stirring to coat chicken in sauce until mixture is warmed through; season with Adobo; remove from heat and set aside. Step 2 Heat remaining vegetable oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat until hot, but not smoking. Cook the tortillas quickly, one at a time, submerging completely in oil, until soft and pliable, but not crisp, about 5 seconds each; drain on paper towel. Step 3 To form flautas, spoon about 1½ tbsp. chicken filling into center of tortilla; roll tightly to enclose filling, making cigar shape. Secure seam side of tortilla with toothpick. Repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken to make 16 flautas. Step 4 Reheat oil in skillet. Add prepared flautas to skillet seam side down, adding only as many as fit comfortably in pan without touching. Cook, flipping occasionally, until browned and crispy on all sides; about 5 minutes. Transfer to baking pan and keep warm in oven until remaining flautas are cooked. Step 5 To serve, arrange shredded lettuce on serving platter; top with flautas. Drizzle with crema and sprinkle with cheese. More Cooking Tips
CRISPY FLAUTAS
I always order flautas at restaurants but have yet to see a recipe anywhere that makes them the way I like them - crispy. Instead of baking them, this recipe uses a deep fryer. It melds the flavors together and makes them extra crunchy. Serve with rice, salad, or whatever side dish you desire.

Steps:
- Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the bell pepper and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and stir in the chicken breast. Cook and stir until the chicken breast is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Shred the chicken using two forks. Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer until the liquid has evaporated, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Stir in the Cheddar cheese, then remove from heat, and set aside.
- Lightly brush each corn tortilla will a layer of salsa. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture in a line along the bottom edge of the tortilla. Tightly roll the tortilla into a cylinder, and secure the ends with one or two toothpicks. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Heat 2 cups vegetable oil in a large skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Fry the flautas in the preheated oil, no more than 4 at a time, until golden and crisp, about 4 minutes. Drain the flautas on a paper towel-lined plate. Discard toothpicks and top finished flautas with remaining salsa.

CHICKEN TORTILLA FLUTES [ROLLS]
I love cooking mexican dishes and this is a fun & easy recipe. I have been making these for quite some time. I love the crunchy flutes. This is a good finger food and I have made it for friends on many occasions. I usually make homemade salsa & guacamole to dip the tortilla flutes in. Sour Cream is also nice to have for dipping. You can also replace the chicken with seafood, such as cooked, shelled shrimp or crabmeat, & serve the rolls with lemon & lime wedges.
