Spicy Baked Chicken Flautas

A healthy Tex-Mex dish the whole family will love!

You'll Need:

  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, minced
  • 2 medium tomatoes, diced
  • 1 1/8 tsp salt, divided
  • ¾ tsp chili powder
  • 4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 12 small flour tortillas
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbls canola oil
  • Fresh lime
  • Fresh chopped cilantro

To Prepare:

Sauté onions, garlic, jalapeno, tomatoes, salt and chili powder about 5 minutes until lightly browned. Stir in chicken and set aside.

Spoon equal amounts of chicken into each tortilla and roll like a cigar. Place, seam-side down, on a greased baking sheet. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and canola. Brush egg-canola mix over flautas. Bake at 400F for about 20 minutes until top begins to brown and flauta is crisp.

Serve topped with a squeeze of lime and a sprinkling of fresh cilantro. Guacamole and salsa on the side if you'd like!
