Creamy Chicken Taquitos

I got this recipe from the cooking blog, The Sisters Cafe.  They are incredibly delicious! Of course I made a few modifications, but you can refer to the original recipe if you'd like to as well.


8 oz. cream cheese
3/4 cup green salsa
2 Tb fresh lime juice 
2.5 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp garlic powder

2 cups shredded chicken
1.5 cup grated pepperjack cheese
small flour tortillas 
cooking spray
salt 

Soften cream cheese in microwave for 20-30 seconds. Stir in green salsa, lime juice and spices until well mixed. Stir in shredded chicken and pepperjack cheese and combine well. **this can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line cookie sheet with  tin foil, lightly sprayed with cooking oil.

Working with 3-4 tortillas at a time, briefly heat in microwave so they are easier to work with. Spoon 2-3 Tb of mixture in a row across the bottom third of tortilla, keeping 1/2 inch away from edge. This makes it possible to roll it up very tightly. Place taquitos seam side down on cookie sheet, making sure they are not touching. Lightly spray with cooking spray and sprinkle with a small amount of salt. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until crisp and edges start to turn golden brown.

Serve with your favorite salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
