Delightful homemade flautas made with gluten-free corn tortillas, filled with juicy shredded chicken and gooey cheese, perfect for family gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (e.g., cheddar, Monterey Jack)
  • 10-12 corn tortillas
  • Oil for frying or cooking spray for baking
  • Toppings (e.g., sour cream, guacamole, salsa)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (if baking) or heat oil in a frying pan (if frying).
  2. Mix the shredded chicken and cheese together in a bowl.
  3. Warm the corn tortillas in a microwave or on a skillet to make them pliable.
  4. Place a spoonful of the chicken and cheese mixture in each tortilla, roll them tightly, and secure with toothpicks if needed.
  5. Arrange the flautas on a baking sheet, spray with cooking spray, and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden (if baking). For frying, carefully place rolled flautas in hot oil and cook until crispy and golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
