HOMEMADE TAQUITOS

Steps:

• For the Slow Cooker: Season roast with salt and pepper. Add chili powder, garlic, cumin, minced onion, beef broth and salsa. Cook on LOW for 7-8 hours or until meat is tender and shreds easily.
• Remove roast to a plate and shred the meat. Discard any large pieces of fat. Return to the pot to keep warm.
• For the Instant Pot: Season roast with salt and pepper. Cut it into four large pieces and place in instant pot. Add chili powder, garlic, cumin, minced onion, beef broth and salsa. Cook on manual/high pressure for 50 minutes. When timer beeps allow the pressure to naturally release before removing the lid (about 15-20 minutes).
• Remove roast to a plate and shred the meat. Discard any large pieces of fat. Return to the pot to keep warm.
• Assembly:
• If frying, add about 1 1/2 inches of oil to a large skillet and heat to medium-high.
• Drain beef and set aside. Heat a non-stick griddle over medium high heat. Cook tortillas for about 15 - 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable. Remove tortillas to a plate covered with tinfoil to keep them warm and pliable.
• Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the meat mixture into a line at one end of a tortilla and tightly roll it up. Use a toothpick to secure it.
• Fried Taquitos:
• Your oil should be hot (the tortillas should sizzle immediately when you put them in).
• Fry the rolled tacos in small batches, for a few seconds on each side, rotating them as they cook, until they are golden and crispy on all sides. Place them on a paper towel lined plate.
• Baked Taquitos:
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray the tops of the tacos with cooking spray , or brush them lightly with oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the shells are crispy.
• Serve taquitos with guacamole, shredded cheese, salsa and sour cream.

NO CAN BEATO THIS TAQUITO

Steps:

• In medium saute pan over medium to high heat, add the oil, onion, red bell pepper, jalapeno pepper, potatoes, garlic and chicken. Saute until the chicken is cooked and the vegetables are soft. Add the oregano and cumin and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Deglaze the pan with the tequila and lime juice and let simmer until the liquid is almost evaporated.
• Remove from heat. Shred the chicken with 2 forks and let cool. Stir in the cilantro.
• Wrap the tortillas in paper towels and microwave for 2 minutes to make the tortillas pliable. Place about 4 tablespoons of the chicken mixture on 1 tortilla, roll tightly and close with a toothpick.
• In large cast iron skillet, heat 1/2 inch of canola oil to 350 degrees F.
• Cooking in batches, add the rolls to the hot oil, placing them seam-side down. Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes, and turn to cook the other side until golden brown.
• Remove and drain on paper towels. Remove the toothpicks and serve with the Guacamole and Tomtillo Salsa.
• Place the avocados, jalapeno, red onion, tomato, beer, sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, salt and pepper in a blender and puree.
• Rub the tomatillos with oil; grill until browned all over.
• Place the tomatillos in a blender with the red onion, garlic, cilantro, vinegar, hot sauce, 1/2 cup of the tomatoes and 1/4 cup of water and puree. Season with salt and pepper. Top with the sour cream and remaining 3 tablespoons tomatoes and serve.

AIR FRYER CHICKEN TAQUITOS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add green chiles and Mexican tomato sauce; stir to combine. Add chicken, Neufchatel cheese, and Mexican cheese blend. Cook and stir until cheeses have melted and mixture is completely warmed, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat tortillas in a skillet or directly on the grates of a gas stove until soft and pliable. Place 3 tablespoons of chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Fold over and roll into taquitos.
• Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place taquitos in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching, and mist with avocado oil. Cook in batches if necessary. Cook until golden brown and crispy, 6 to 9 minutes. Turn taquitos over, mist with avocado oil, and air fry for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.

BEAN & CHEESE TAQUITOS W/ GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Make guacamole first by combining all ingredients except sour cream.
• Mash and stir until only small lumps of avocado remain.
• Garnish with sour cream piled in the center and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Combine beans, Tabasco, cumin, corriander, salt and cheese stirring well.
• Microwave tortillas between 2 paper towels, 3 at a time on high for 30 seconds.
• Work with one tortilla at a time, keeping the others covered in paper towels so they stay warm and moist.
• Place 1 tablespoon of filling at the center edge of tortilla closest to you and roll tightly away from you like skinny cigar.
• Keep filling away from the edges, as it may leak out when frying and cause the oil to spatter.
• Put seam side down on a paper towel or wax paper and repeat the process until you've made all 24 taquitos.
• Using medium-thick cotton string, toothpicks, or bamboo skewers secure the center seam of each taquito (if you omit this part, they will pop open during frying and make a big mess).
• Heat oil in medium frying pan on medium-high (about 325F) and cook taquitos 4 at a time turning frequently until golden brown on all sides.
• Drain on cooling rack on top of paper towels (this ensures the oil drains away and the taquitos stay crispy).
• Serve hot with guacamole.
