Baked Creamy Chicken Taquitos

 From Jennilyn Woolf

1/3 C (3 oz.) cream cheese

1/4 C green salsa

1 T fresh lime juice

1/2 t cumin

1 t chili powder

1/2 t onion powder

1/4 t garlic powder

3 T chopped cilantro

2 T chopped green onions (opt)

2 C cooked, shredded chicken (can use canned)

1 C shredded pepper jack cheese, or Mexican blend, or cheddar

6 inch corn or flour tortillas

2 T oil (can use the cooking spray instead)

Nonstick cooking spray

Kosher salt (regular salt will be fine)

Heat oven to 425. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray lightly with cooking spray.

Heat cream cheese in microwave for 20-30 seconds so it's soft and easy to stir. Add green salsa, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, onion powder, and garlic. Stir to combine, then add cilantro, green onions, chicken, and cheese.

Wrap 3-4 tortillas in a damp paper towel (or clean, damp towel) and microwave for 20-30 seconds so they are soft and pliable. If the tortillas crack when rolled, use damper towels and increase the microwave time.

Place 2-3 T of chicken mix in the tortilla and roll it up.

Place seam side down on baking sheet in a single layer. Spray the tops with cooking spray or brush with vegetable oil. Sprinkle with some Kosher salt. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until crisp and the ends get golden brown. Cool for 5-10 minutes and serve with (opt) sour cream, guacamole, salsa. Makes approximately 16 corn or 12 flour taquitos.
