Baked Chicken Flautas Recipe
These Baked Chicken Flautas are a crispy, golden delight that bring the vibrant flavors of Mexican cuisine to your table in just 30 minutes. Packed with tender shredded chicken, melty cheese, and a hint of spice, each bite offers a satisfying crunch and a burst of savory goodness.
Ingredients
- 4 cups chicken, cooked (shredded, rotisserie chicken works great)
- 1 cup salsa verde, (the green salsa)
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 (15.25 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 (15 ounce) can corn, drained
- 1½ cups Colby Jack shredded cheese, divided
- 12-14 flour tortillas, (soft taco size)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line a large baking sheet (15 x 10 x 1 inches) with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together chicken, salsa, cream cheese, black beans, corn, and 1 cup shredded cheese.
- Add 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture and roll up, then place seam-side down on the prepared pan. Repeat this process until all the chicken mixture is used up.
- Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of tortillas and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tortillas start to turn golden brown (the edges of the tortilla will turn golden first).
- Remove from oven and serve with your favorite toppings (salsa, guacamole, sour cream, lettuce, etc).
