Homemade Beef Flautas

How to make Homemade Beef Flautas

Ingredients :

vegetable or canola oil for frying

3 cups shredded beef or shredded cooked chicken

1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese

½ cup salsa store-bought or homemade

1 (4-ounce) can diced chiles

garlic salt with parsley flakes to taste

pepper to taste

12 6-inch flour tortillas (or corn tortillas)

salt to taste

Toppings

shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, green salsa, guacamole, Cilantro Ranch dressing

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to the warm setting or about 200 degrees F.

Fill a large saucepan with about ¾ inch oil. Heat over medium heat to 375 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, combine chicken, cheese, salsa, diced chiles, garlic salt and pepper.

Working with 4 tortillas at a time, spread a heaping spoonful of chicken filling along the middle of each tortilla.

Roll the tortillas tightly around the filling and secure each one with a toothpick.

Using tongs, hold each flauta in hot oil until firm, then release to continue cooking.

Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes, then remove to a paper towel–lined plate and immediately season with salt.

Transfer flautas to a foil-lined baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while assembling and cooking the remaining tortillas. Serve warm with toppings

Enjoy !!
