Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked shredded chicken breast
• 1 cup Canned black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup Shredded reduced-fat Mexican blend cheese
• 0.5 cup Salsa
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 12 pieces Small corn tortillas
• 1 as needed Olive oil spray
• 0.5 cup Light sour cream
• 1 teaspoon Adobo sauce from canned chipotle peppers
• 1 tablespoon Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken breast, black beans, shredded cheese, salsa, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly blended.

Step 3

Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave them for 30 seconds to make them pliable.

Step 4

Spoon 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the lower third of each tortilla. Tightly roll it up and place it seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Lightly spray the rolled taquitos with olive oil spray to help them crisp up in the oven.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the taquitos are golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

While the taquitos bake, prepare the adobo sour cream by whisking together the sour cream and adobo sauce in a small bowl. Taste and adjust with more adobo sauce if desired for additional heat.

Step 8

Remove the taquitos from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve the taquitos warm with a dollop of adobo sour cream on the side. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired.
