Cream Cheese Chicken Taquitos Beautiful Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Chicken Taquitos











INGREDIENTS






  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon cumin

  • salt + pepper

  • 8 ounces cream cheese

  • ⅓ cup water

  • 1 to 1 ½ cups shredded colby or Mexican blend cheese

  • 12 6 inch corn or flour tortillas

  • optional: cilantro, salsa, sour cream, or other toppings as
    desired





































INSTRUCTIONS






  1. Mix chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt and pepper to
    taste, cream cheese, and water in a medium mixing bowl. Pour half of the
    mixture into your crockpot, place chicken in crockpot and pour remaining
    mixture over the chicken.

  2. Cover and cook on low 8 hours or high for 4 hours.

  3. Minutes before serving, remove chicken from crock pot, shred
    with two forks, and return to slow cooker. Give it a stir. Cook about 15
    minutes longer.

  4. Preheat oven to 400. Here is a great trick to keep your corn
    tortilla from falling apart. Place 1 corn tortilla on a skillet, put about ⅛
    cup cheese on the corn tortilla. Warm the tortilla until the cheese melts,
    remove tortilla from pan. Melting the cheese on the corn tortilla will keep it
    from falling apart in the next step.

  5. Place about ¼ cup of the chicken mixture onto the middle of
    each corn tortilla that has the melted cheese on it or a flour tortilla.

  6. Top with 1-2 tablespoons shredded cheese. Roll tightly and
    place in a single layer on a greased baking sheet. If using corn tortilla
    brushing some olive oil over them will help with browning and crisping.

  7. Bake 10 minutes, until tortillas are slightly browned and
    shredded cheese is melted. Serve with desired toppings and sauces.
