BAKED CHICKEN FLAUTAS
I grew up in the kitchen eating Mexican food every day and never got tired of it. These are a great dish for "Mexican or Taco Night." They are easy to eat and what kid doesn't like chicken tacos (that's what my 8-year-old brother calls them). Others prefer to microwave the tortillas, roll up the flautas, and then deep-fry them. Baking them just makes me feel a tad less guilty. I like to serve these with refried beans, fresh lettuce, green salsa, and top it off with more shredded cheese and sour cream.

Steps:
- Place chicken breasts, onion, garlic, and salt in a deep pot. Cover with water and cook over medium heat, adding water if it starts to get low, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat and shred chicken with 2 forks. Reserve 1/2 cup stock.
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add shredded chicken and sazon seasoning. Add the reserved chicken stock, stir well, and reduce heat. Cook until all stock has evaporated. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place another frying pan over medium heat with 1/2 cup of vegetable oil. Begin frying corn tortillas one at a time until soft, but not crispy, 30 seconds to 1 minute, flipping once. Place the tortillas aside as you fry them.
- Place 1 tablespoon of cooked chicken on one end of each tortilla along with 1 tablespoon of Monterey Jack cheese. Roll into flautas and place side by side on a cookie sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

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.

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN FLAUTAS
Take taco night to the next level with this weeknight spin on cheesy, crunchy flautas. After stuffing them with a smoky, spicy ground chicken-chipotle mixture, we skipped the traditional pan-frying route in favor of letting them crisp-up in the oven.

Steps:
- Add enough oil to a heavy bottom straight-sided pan to come 2 inches up the sides. Heat over medium heat to 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer.
- Meanwhile, mix together the chicken, Cheddar, 1/2 cup salsa and the cumin in a medium bowl. Spoon about a 1/4 cup of the mixture into the center of each tortilla. Roll the tortillas tightly around the filling and secure with a toothpick.
- Working in batches of 2 or 3 at a time, place the taquitos in the hot oil and fry, flipping as needed to brown evenly, until crispy and golden brown, about 3 minutes. Using tongs, remove the taquitos to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Continue with the remaining taquitos. Serve alongside salsa and sour cream for dipping, if desired.
CRISPY CHICKEN FLAUTAS
Crisp flautas are usually fried and full of fat. This recipe offers a grilled and reduced fat version. Serve wtih pico de gallo and non-fat sour cream, unless you don't give a hoot and have major oink tendencies like myself, in which case, go hog wild and use full-fat stuff.

Steps:
- Add the salsa, sour cream, green chilies and all seasonings to a large bowl (except cayenne); stir to combine. Stir in chicken followed by cheeses. Season with cayenne pepper to taste (optional), keeping in mind the flavor will mellow in the tortillas.
- If using lower quality tortillas, stack 6 together and top with a dampened paper towel. Microwave for 60 seconds so they're more pliable and easier to roll. Fill, roll and repeat.
- To assemble, lay 12-14 tortillas on a flat surface. Add approximately 3 tablespoons filling to the bottom third of each tortilla then tightly roll up tortillas and place them seam side down.

- 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.

- To begin, place the chicken thighs in a saucepan or deep skillet. Pour in the chicken broth. Bring this to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until the chicken is tender and pulls apart easily.
- Drain the liquid from the chicken, reserving 1/3 cup. (Rather than discarding the broth, I recommend storing it in an air tight container in your refrigerator and using it the next day in another recipe.)
- In a small dish, combine the reserved broth with the smoked paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, ground cumin, chipotle chili powder, fine sea salt, freshly ground black pepper and onion powder.

- 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.
