Time 45m

Yield 6 Flautas, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

10 inches flour tortillas (Qty 6)
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon cooking oil
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup bottled salsa
1/2 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese (2 ozs.)
2 tablespoons snipped fresh cilantro or 2 tablespoons oregano
cooking oil (for frying)
3 cups shredded lettuce
purchased guacamole (optional)
bottled salsa (optional)
sour cream (optional)
cilantro leaf (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Wrap tortillas tightly in foil. Heat in oven about 10 minutes or until heated through.
  • 2. Meanwhile, for filling, in a large saucepan, cook onion and garlic in the 1 teaspoon hot oil until tender. Stir in chicken, black beans, 1/2 cup bottled salsa, the cheese, and 2 tablespoons cilantro.
  • 3. For each flauta, spoon about 1/2 cup filling across each warm tortilla about 1-1/2 inches from one edge. Roll up tortillas as tightly as possible. Secure with wooden toothpicks.
  • 4. In a very large, deep skillet, heat 1-1/2 inches of cooking oil to 365 degrees F. Fry flautas, two at a time, for 2 to 3 minutes or until crisp and golden brown, turning once. Drain on paper towels. Keep fried flautas warm in a 300 degrees F oven while frying remaining flautas.
  • 5. To serve, remove toothpicks. Halve flautas crosswise. If desired, serve with guacamole, salsa, sour cream, and cilantro.
  • 6. Baked Flautas: Prepare filling and shape flautas as directed. Place flautas on a large baking sheet and brush with 1 tablespoon cooking oil. Bake in a 350 degrees F oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until golden brown and heated through. Serve as directed.
  • 7. Make-Ahead Directions: Prepare filling and shape flautas as directed. Cover; chill for up to 24 hours. Fry or bake as directed. Makes 6 flautas.

I thought these flautas were just okay. The chicken filling was a bit dry and the black beans were bland. I wouldn't make this recipe again.
