Provided by Lauren Allen

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 2.5-4lb beef chuck roast *
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
14 oz can beef broth
½ cup salsa
1 1/2 Tbsp chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 Tbsp cumin
1 teaspoon dry minced onion powder
20 corn tortillas
Oil for frying
toothpicks
Salsa
Sour cream
Guacamole
Shredded cheese

Steps:

  • For the Slow Cooker: Season roast with salt and pepper. Add chili powder, garlic, cumin, minced onion, beef broth and salsa. Cook on LOW for 7-8 hours or until meat is tender and shreds easily.
  • Remove roast to a plate and shred the meat. Discard any large pieces of fat. Return to the pot to keep warm.
  • For the Instant Pot: Season roast with salt and pepper. Cut it into four large pieces and place in instant pot. Add chili powder, garlic, cumin, minced onion, beef broth and salsa. Cook on manual/high pressure for 50 minutes. When timer beeps allow the pressure to naturally release before removing the lid (about 15-20 minutes).
  • Remove roast to a plate and shred the meat. Discard any large pieces of fat. Return to the pot to keep warm.
  • Assembly:
  • If frying, add about 1 1/2 inches of oil to a large skillet and heat to medium-high.
  • Drain beef and set aside. Heat a non-stick griddle over medium high heat. Cook tortillas for about 15 - 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable. Remove tortillas to a plate covered with tinfoil to keep them warm and pliable.
  • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the meat mixture into a line at one end of a tortilla and tightly roll it up. Use a toothpick to secure it.
  • Fried Taquitos:
  • Your oil should be hot (the tortillas should sizzle immediately when you put them in).
  • Fry the rolled tacos in small batches, for a few seconds on each side, rotating them as they cook, until they are golden and crispy on all sides. Place them on a paper towel lined plate.
  • Baked Taquitos:
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray the tops of the tacos with cooking spray , or brush them lightly with oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the shells are crispy.
  • Serve taquitos with guacamole, shredded cheese, salsa and sour cream.

BAKED ROLLED TACOS



Baked Rolled Tacos image

My boyfriend, like most guys, has a huge appetite; I have a huge "need" to be frugal. Both of us are committed to eating healthy MOST of the time (that way, we don't feel as guilty while eating our pizza and wings and downing a couple of adult beverages on the weekends haha). Anywho, I'm on this huge kick right now of using cheap but healthy "fillers" such as beans, brown rice, textured vegetable protein (TVP), and fresh veggies (sometimes all at once!). My favorite home-cooked meals are not only healthy, but provide both of us with large enough portions to feel satisfied, plus "seconds" for the boyfriend, PLUS provide me with a work lunch the following day. If I can freeze half for a future meal, even better. Next time I make these, I'll probably throw in some chopped bell pepper and shredded carrots...that'll give me a couple more tacos, and more veggies! These are very filling.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h

Yield 16 tacos, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large chicken breast, cooked and shredded
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons chili powder
3 garlic cloves (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
2 cups red enchilada sauce
1 cup water
1/2 medium white onion, diced
1 cup 2% cheddar cheese, shredded
16 corn tortillas

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, mash the beans with a potato masher.
  • Add the chicken, cumin, chili powder, garlic, enchilada sauce, and water. (Depending on how thin your enchilada sauce is, you may want to decrease the amount of water.).
  • Turn heat to low and simmer until all liquid is absorbed. If the mixture is too liquidy, strain through a cheesecloth.
  • Remove from heat and stir in half cup of cheese and the onions.
  • Preheat oven to 400°.
  • To prevent cracking, prep the tortillas by wrapping them in a kitchen towel and placing in a metal colander over a covered pan of boiling water until they are hot and pliable.
  • Place 1/4 cup of filling lengthwise in the tortilla and roll the tortilla around it.
  • Place on a greased cookie sheet, seam-side down. (At this point, you may want to secure each with toothpicks, though I haven't found it necessary.).
  • Spray lightly with canola cooking spray and bake in preheated oven until taco shells are crispy.
  • Top with the remaining cheese and bake until melted.
  • Serve with taco sauce, homemade guacamole, and/or sour cream.

ROLLED TACOS



Rolled Tacos image

I love Mexican food but a lot of it is too spicy for me, so I've created this excellent, low-spiced version of rolled chicken tacos.

Provided by GIPSY

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 (6 ounce) cans black olives, drained
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa
24 (6 inch) flour tortillas
¼ cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Boil chicken breasts for 20 minutes or until they are thoroughly cooked. Drain breasts well and let cool. Use an electric food processor or manually shred the chicken and set aside.
  • Use an electric food processor or blender to puree the olives. In a mixing bowl, combine salsa, olives, and chicken. Heat tortillas in microwave for about 20 to 30 seconds.
  • Place 1 to 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center of each warmed tortilla and roll the tortillas tightly, using toothpicks to keep them closed.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tortillas: Corn or flour tortillas can be used, but corn tortillas are more traditional and have a better flavor. If using corn tortillas, be sure to warm them up before rolling to make them more pliable.
  • Don't overfill the tacos: Too much filling will make the tacos difficult to roll and will cause them to fall apart when baked.
  • Use a variety of fillings: There are endless possibilities for fillings, so get creative! Some popular options include ground beef, chicken, beans, vegetables, and cheese.
  • Top the tacos with your favorite toppings: Shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa are all great options.
  • Bake the tacos until they are golden brown and crispy: This will take about 15-20 minutes in a 400°F oven.

Conclusion:

Baked rolled tacos are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a party. With a variety of fillings and toppings to choose from, there are endless possibilities for customization. So get creative and enjoy this fun and flavorful dish!
