🧂 Ingredients

2 cups shredded chicken breast
2 ounces softened cream cheese
½ cup shredded colby jack cheese
2 teaspoon taco seasoning
⅓ cup salsa
½ cup black beans
8 taco sized flour tortillas
sour cream, greek yogurt, limes, tomatoes, onions, cilantro

Instructions

1 In a medium bowl [https://amzn.to/3tImQPJ], add softened cream cheese, salsa,
taco seasoning, beans, and shredded cheese; mix well. Add shredded chicken and
mix to distribute and coat the chicken well.
2 Place about ¼ cup of the mixture into the center of a tortilla. Press the side
over and roll the tortilla up tightly. Set seam side down so they don’t open
back up while preparing the remaining taquitos. Repeat for all the
mixture/taquitos (about 8 depending on size of tortillas)
3 Place in the air fryer, seam side down. Lightly spray the tops of the taquitos
with oil spray, and brush the oil evenly over the tops (just a little). Close
the air fryer and set to 400 degrees and 7 minutes. Using tongs, carefully flip
them over, lightly spray with oil spray, and then cook 4-5 more minutes
4 Serve immediately with desired topping.
5 Place taquitos back in air fryer. Set to 350 degrees and cook for 2-4 minutes or
until cooked through. Careful not to burn.
