Equipment

Ingredients

  • 6 Tablespoons honey
  • 5 Tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 Tablespoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cooked and shredded
  • 12-15 flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup green enchilada sauce
  • ½ cup sour cream

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, chili powder and garlic powder. Add shredded chicken to the mixing bowl and let it marinate in the fridge for at least a 1/2 hour, but preferably a half day or so.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spread chicken mixture evenly between flour tortillas, top with cheese and roll up tightly, placing seam side down on a baking sheet. Spray the tops of the taquitos with nonstick cooking spray (or brush with a little vegetable oil). Bake for 15-20 minutes or until tortillas are golden brown.
  • Whisk together enchilada sauce and sour cream and serve with taquitos.

Notes

  • Please note this recipe needs a little marinating time so you will need to plan ahead a little bit!
