I found this recipe on pinterest this week and made them for dinner last night. It was a hit and really easy to make!!! If you like the cafe rio pork, these kind of taste like that, they are very sweet with a hint of spice in them. Also I think the cilantro lime cream dip would be yummy, however I did not take the extra time to make it. We just dipped ours in sour cream and salsa.
BAKED HONEY LIME CHICKEN TAQUITOS
- 3 cups cooked shredded chicken (I used a rotisserie)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- ⅓ cup honey
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 cups shredded cheese
- 10 soft taco sized flour tortillas
- Cooking spray
- 1 cup sour cream
- ⅓ cup green taco sauce (mild)
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, combine chicken, lime juice, honey, chili powder, and garlic and mix to coat.
- Lay out your tortillas, and divide chicken evenly on the center of each tortilla. Top each one with cheese.
- Roll each tortilla tightly, leaving the ends open, and place them on a baking sheet sprayed with nonstick spray or olive oil.
- Spray the tops of the taquitos and sprinkle with salt.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then serve with Cilantro Lime Cream.
- In a food processor or blender, combine all ingredients and pulse until smooth.
