Chicken Taquitos With Warm Tomato Salsa (Flautas Con Pollo) image

I found this one online but I don't remember where. The flautas are very good but the salsa is outstanding. It goes well with all manner of dishes especially tacos, burritos, and chimichangas, etc. The times are a guess.

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but these taquitos were surprisingly good. The salsa really made the dish.

I followed the recipe exactly and the taquitos turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the salsa is flavorful and tangy.

The chicken taquitos turned out great! The salsa was a bit too spicy for my taste, but that's just a personal preference.
