These easy-to-make Chicken Taquitos are creamy and delicious. They're air fried, so no extra oils, and can be on the table in less than 30 minutes for a tasty lunch, dinner or appetizer.
In a large bowl, combine everything up to the tortillas. Mix well.
To assemble: Fill 1 tortilla with 3 tablespoons of filling along the center. Leave a little room at one end to fold up. Fold up one end then roll tightly around filling. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Preheat air fryer to 400°F for 5 minutes.
Spray basket and place rolled taquitos into basket. Make sure they do not touch. Air fry in batches if necessary. Spray tops of taquitos.
Air fry for 5 minutes, turn them over, spray again with cooking spray and cook 2 more minutes. If they are not quite crispy enough you can add a minute.
