Calling all buffalo sauce lovers! These creamy air fryer buffalo chicken taquitos are pretty much perfect for any occasion. Whether it's a shower, a Super Bowl party, a potluck, or holiday, add these to your list!
SIDE NOTE 1: Cook times may vary depending on type of air fryer you have. I have a Cosori.
SIDE NOTE 2: This recipe makes 8 taquitos.
INGREDIENTS
2 1/2 cups chicken, cooked and shredded
1/2 cup Buffalo sauce (I use Primal Kitchen Foods)
4 oz dairy-free cream cheese (I use Kite Hill)
1 (8-count) pkg tortillas (I use Siete cassava)
Avocado oil cooking spray (I use Chosen Foods)
Optional Toppings & Dips: green onions, sour cream, Greek yogurt, Ranch, blue cheese crumbles
HOW TO MAKE
-Preheat air fryer to 380.
-In a large mixing bowl, add cream cheese and buffalo sauce. Stir to mix.
-Stir in shredded chicken. Stir until well combined.
-In a small skillet over medium heat, heat tortillas for a few seconds on each side until pliable (makes them easier to roll). Be careful, turning and removing the tortilla will be HOT!
-Place warmed tortilla on a flat surface, and add 2-3 Tbsp of chicken mixture in a line to the first third of the tortilla (closest to you).
-Carefully roll the tortilla up (away from you), and set aside seam side down. Repeat last 3 steps until all tortillas are filled and rolled.
-Line air fryer basket with unbleached parchment paper.
-Place taquitos in a single layer in air fryer, making sure they aren’t too crowded.
-Lightly spray each taquito with avocado oil cooking spray.
-Cook for 5 mins then turn over.
-Lightly spray again with avocado oil cooking spray.
-Cook for 5 mins on this side.
-Remove and let cool for 5 mins before serving with dips of choice.
