Not exclusively were they slow to make, the flavor is outstanding. SP was a fiddling disappointed that I wasn't deep-frying them but nosotros both idea the tortillas had neat compaction exactly from baking. The exclusively alter I made to the master copy recipe was to operate flour tortillas instead of corn because SP isn't a large corn tortilla fan.
I HIGHLY recommend doubling the recipe in addition to freezing half. It takes virtually no endeavor to double all the ingredients in addition to directly I receive got a overnice handbag sum of taquitos to bake upward 1 nighttime when I don't experience similar doing anything also involved for dinner. I also recommend making these on a weekend solar daytime if y'all are planning to roast your ain chicken for the filling. I bought bone-in, skin-on breasts, seasoned them exactly amongst common salt in addition to pepper in addition to roasted them for an hour. The meat was thus tender in addition to juicy (recipe below).
I served them amongst xanthous rice in addition to a mix of sour cream in addition to leftover salsa verde to dip. SP did direct sour cream. I mean value taco sauce or a thinned out guacamole would also live good, but operate whatever y'all like.
