Chicken Flautas is one of the most popular of recent trending meals in the world. It’s simple, it’s fast, it tastes yummy. It is enjoyed by millions every day. Chicken Flautas is something which I have loved my whole life. They are nice and they look wonderful.
How Do I Serve Chicken Flautas? With flautas, the two things that vary by region are the filling and the toppings. In most cases, the filling is made from pulled chicken or beef, your favorite Mexican chili.
To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can cook chicken flautas using 13 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Chicken Flautas:
- Make ready can cooking spray
- Prepare 2 onion, chopped
- Make ready 2 can Green Chiles-chopped
- Make ready 2 tbsp butter or oil
- Make ready 8 chicken thighs- precooked and shredded
- Get 4 oz sour cream
- Prepare 6 oz cream cheese- softened
- Make ready 4 oz salsa-I just used Tostitos brand but any will work
- Get 1 can sweet corn- drained
- Prepare 1 1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese- shredded
- Prepare granulated garlic
- Get 1 tbsp chopped parsley
- Get 18 tortillas- flour
Before we get started it's worth mentioning that Flautas sometimes moonlight as Taquitos, and vice versa. In Mexico, Flautas are traditionally made with corn tortillas. 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.
Steps to make Chicken Flautas:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly spray 9 x 13 pan with non-stick cooking spray
- In a medium pan with 2 tbs. Oil or butter, saute chilis and onion until softened.
- Combine all ingredients except tortillas in a large bowl.
- Put about 2-3 spoonfuls of the filling mixture on an outer third of the tortillas and roll.
- Place rolled tortillas in pan and cook for about 15 minutes or until the tortillas are crisp and lightly browned. They can also be placed under the broiler for a few minutes, being careful not to burn the tortillas.
- There should be enough filling and tortillas to make 2 pans of this. I made one for dinner and then froze another pan for a meal at a later date. Be sure to thaw the flautas before cooking second batch.
My favorite flauta recipe, from a Mexican cookbook by Jane Milton. The addition of cheese inside makes them very tasty! I serve these with crema (or sour creme) and homemade salsa. Fried chicken flautas made with flour tortilla and fresh ingredients. Flautas are basically taquitos but made using flour tortillas instead of corn tortillas.
