Ingredients
Sauce, enchilada, red, mild, ready to serve ⅔ cup or 149g
Cheddar cheese 4 cup, shredded or 452g
Directions
- Heat the oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Warm the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic, cumin, and chili powder; cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the shredded canned chicken and enchilada sauce; bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the chopped cilantro and season to taste with salt. Remove from heat.
- For the cheese shells, divide the shredded cheese into 4 even mounds on the lined sheets, spacing well. Bake until melted and the edges are lightly golden, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cool 2 to 4 minutes until pliable, then gently lift from the parchment.
- Spoon a small amount of the warm chicken mixture along one edge of each cheese round and roll up tightly to form taquitos.
- Serve hot with sour cream and hot sauce for dipping.
