Baked Honey Lime Chicken Taquitos
Honey Lime Chicken Enchiladas are some of my very favorite enchiladas, but we eat them all the time, so I thought this was a fun way to change it up a bit. Here's the recipe:
It was super delicious! Oddly, my husband wasn't as big a fan of the sweet flavor in taquitos as he is in the enchiladas, but I thought it was just as good. I made the cilantro lime sour cream to go with it and thought it was just okay. I personally feel it is just as good (or better) with plain sour cream.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (I used rotisserie)
- 4 oz cream cheese
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 Tablespoon Lime Juice
- ⅓ cup honey
- 1 Cup Colby Jack Cheese
- 2 Tablespoons Cilantro, finely chopped
- 8-10 small flour tortillas
- Cilantro Lime Sour Cream:
- 1 cup sour cream
- ⅓ cup green taco sauce
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with foil and spraying it with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Soften the cream cheese in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, lime juice and honey. Add in the shredded chicken, colby jack cheese, and cilantro. Stir until combined well.
- Add about 3 Tablespoons of the chicken mixture about 1 inch from the edge of the flour tortilla. Roll it up and place it seam side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with each one and place about 1 inch apart not touching each other on baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the tortilla is lightly browning around the edges.
- To make the cilantro lime sour cream: Whisk together sour cream, taco sauce, lime juice and cilantro.
