About Flautas mexicanas de pollo

Flautas Mexicanas de Pollo are a traditional Mexican dish made by rolling shredded, seasoned chicken inside corn tortillas, which are then tightly rolled and lightly fried to a crispy golden perfection. Originating from Mexican street food culture, these flautas are popular for their crunchy texture and savory filling. Typically served with toppings like lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, cheese, and a drizzle of cream or salsa, they offer a flavorful and satisfying meal. Corn tortillas provide a gluten-free base, and chicken offers a lean protein source, making it a relatively balanced option. However, they are often fried, which increases calorie and fat content. By baking instead of frying, or limiting heavy toppings, flautas can be made healthier while preserving their delicious taste. These flautas celebrate the vibrant flavors of Mexican cuisine, blending tradition with a warm, comforting appeal.
