Ingredients
- 1/2 pound (225g) cooked shredded Chicken breast or leg meat ( Recipes here for Baked Chicken or Poached Chicken )
- 1 medium onion , sliced thin
- 2 cloves garlic , minced
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) Worcestershire or Soy Sauce
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- 1 Tablespoon (5ml) oil for cooking
- Vegetable oil for frying
- about 12 corn tortillas ( 6" size)
- Serve with Sour Cream , Fresh Salsa or Guacamole ( Here are recipes for Salsa and Guacamole )
Directions
Make Chicken filling:
-
-
Heat large saucepan to medium heat. Add 1 Tablespoon oil, then add onions and garlic. Cook till soft and translucent.
-
Add shredded chicken, Worcestershire or soy sauce and stir and cook for about 2 minutes or until everything is combined well.
-
Add salt and pepper to taste.
-
Allow mixture to cool completely.
Roll and Fry Taquitos:
-
In large frying pan, add oil till about 1.5 " depth. Heat the oil to about 350º F, or until hot enough when a small piece of tortilla sizzles when dropped in oil.
-
Soften the tortillas in oil: Grab two tortillas at a time with a pair of tongs, and dip them for few seconds in the oil. Do not dip too long or tortillas will break apart. Gently lay hot tortillas on paper towels and pile them into a single stack.
-
Spoon about 2 Tablespoons of chicken filling in a line across the bottom of the tortillas. Tightly roll them up, then skewer with toothpicks to keep them closed.
-
Fry the tacos in the hot oil for about 1-2 minutes or until golden, then turn over and finish frying both sides. Blot taquitos of excess oil on paper towels and serve immediately with sour cream, fresh salsa or guacamole.
