Instructions :

Notes:
- This recipe was made in a 5.8qt Cosori Air Fryer. If you are using a different brand or style of air fryer, for best results you may need to adjust the temperature accordingly.
- My kiddos love to eat the taquitos as is, but I love to pile on the toppings. Consider adding toppings such as shredded lettuce, green chilies, salsa verde, sour cream, shredded Mexican blend cheddar cheese, sliced jalapenos, and more.
- If you would rather make these homemade taquitos from scratch, you’ll want to prep a few things ahead of time. For beef taquitos, brown lean ground beef and add taco seasoning. Place the seasoned meat into the center of each tortilla and carefully wrap until they are fully closed. Place into the air fryer basket seam side down. Air fry the taquitos at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.
- You can also opt for chicken taquitos. You can shred freshly cooked chicken breasts or even use rotisserie chicken. Add a little cream cheese and green chilies to the mixture and then carefully scoop the cheesy chicken filling into the center of the prepared tortillas. Place into the air fryer basket seam side down. Air Fry at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 4-5 minutes or until fully cooked and golden brown.
