Oven-Baked Chicken Black Bean Taquito:
Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup salsa
- juice of 1 lime
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 can (4.5 ounces) chopped green chiles
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (about 2 medium chicken breasts)
- 1/2 bell pepper, any color, chopped
- 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup grated Mexican cheese
- 16 small flour tortillas
- cooking spray
- kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 C), and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, salsa, lime juice, spices, garlic, cilantro, green onions, chiles, chicken, black beans, bell pepper, and cheese. Mix thoroughly to combine.
- To assemble, briefly warm the tortillas in the microwave, making them soft enough to roll easily, about 20 seconds. Working with one tortilla at a time, place each on a work surface, spread about 3 tablespoons of filling down the middle, and roll up tightly. Place each rolled tortilla seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 1-2 inches apart.
- Coat tops lightly with cooking spray and sprinkle with kosher salt. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the tops are crisp and golden brown. Serve immediately.
