Recipe By: Sam The Cooking Guy
You know those late-night internet deep dives? Most end in weird rabbit holes and regret. This one ended in TAQUITO GLORY.

Meet Sam The Cooking Guy—the kitchen wizard behind these cheesy, crispy, flavor-packed taquitos that straight-up blew our minds.

Here’s the breakdown:
🟢 Shredded chicken swimming in tangy verde salsa
🔥 Smoky chipotle heat that doesn’t play
🧀 Cheese. So much glorious cheese.
🌯 Rolled tight in flour tortillas and baked to golden perfection

The result? A volcanic flavor explosion that’ll have your taste buds throwing a fiesta.

INGREDIENTS
2 cups shredded, cooked chicken (a deli-roasted chicken is perfect)
1/3 cup green salsa
1-2 tablespoons chipotle peppers, finely minced
1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
12 small flour tortillas
Avocado Oil - I like a spray for this

For serving:
Sour Cream
Guacamole
Salsa
Queso fresco
Limes

INSTRUCTIONS
PREHEAT oven to 425

COMBINE chicken, salsa, chipotles and cheese in a large bowl - mix well

WARM tortillas in a non-stick pan until softened and pliable - about 30 seconds a side

ADD some chicken to each tortilla, roll up tight and place seam-side down on a greased baking

BRUSH or spray with oil and bake about 25 minutes or until beginning to brown at the edges

SERVE with sour cream, guac, etc.
