Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
- 8 pieces low-carb tortillas (6-inch each)
- 0.5 cup chopped onion
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 0.25 cup chopped cilantro
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 0.5 cup guacamole
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
Step 3
Lay out each low-carb tortilla, and place about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture on one side of the tortilla. Tightly roll the tortilla around the filling to form a flauta.
Step 4
Place the flauta seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet to prevent it from unrolling.
Step 5
Once all tortillas are filled and rolled, brush the tops with olive oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the flautas are golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Remove the flautas from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Step 8
Serve the flautas with sour cream, salsa, and guacamole on the side for dipping.
