We love Mexican food and these Baked Chicken Flautas are a family favorite!

This recipe is easy to throw together and this is one that I will pick up a rotisserie chicken at the store and use that shredded meat to whip them up in no time.

What should I serve with these flautas?

–Mexican Street Corn Salad: There is a video for this recipe below. Wow. It is delicious. There are no words to explain how yummy this corn is. If you have ever had Mexican Street Corn, you know what I’m talking about.

–Greek Yogurt Fruit Salad: I love adding a little bit of fruit to my dinners. It’s also something I know my kids will eat.

–Spanish Brown Rice: This is my Mexican side dish go to. It is so easy and so yummy. You could even pair it with a can of refried beans, and it will feel like an authentic Mexican restaurant.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups chicken cooked (shredded, rotisserie chicken works great)
  • 1 cup salsa verde (the green salsa)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) can black beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 ounce) can corn drained
  • 1½ cups Colby Jack shredded cheese divided
  • 12-14 flour tortillas  (soft taco size)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line a large baking sheet (15 x 10 x 1 inches) with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix together chicken, salsa, cream cheese, black beans, corn, and 1 cup shredded cheese.
  • Add 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture and roll up, then place seam-side down on the prepared pan. Repeat this process until all the chicken mixture is used up.
  • Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of tortillas and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tortillas start to turn golden brown (the edges of the tortilla will turn golden first).
  • Remove from oven and serve with your favorite toppings (salsa, guacamole, sour cream, lettuce, etc).

Notes

We like to serve this with Mexican Street Corn Salad and Spanish Brown Rice

        Should they be thawed first before baking?

          Yes, I would at least have them semi thawed in the fridge. That way they won't cook quite as long and will heat through quicker.

    Just ok. The chicken needed some seasoning and the filling itself was a little bland. Tasted ok with some toppings (we had guac, sour cream, pickled jalepenos and salsa). Came out of the oven nice and crispy, especially after they cooled down a bit. Easy to make for a weeknight. The recipe made a ton, so consider halving it unless you want a ton of leftovers. We will heat them up for lunch tomorrow in out air fryer.
