This is the BEST Baked Chicken Taquitos recipe out there!  Store them in the freezer for a quick weeknight meal.

Maternity leave has been the best time of my life.Β  Spending 12 weeks, 24 hours a day, with my new son, Judah, has been such bliss that I can’t believe it is almost over.Β  It’s flown by, and now I return to my full-time job this Thursday. πŸ™

Not only does this mean less time with the love(s) of my life (my husband included), it also means less time to spend on cooking and baking!Β  So, I have been thinking of meals that can be prepped ahead and frozen, or just thrown together quickly from the fridge or pantry.Β  This is one of those meals, and I am thrilled I found it.

Meal Prep Chicken Taquitos

These taquitos are delicious and extremely easy to assemble, and now I am afraid I will make them too often and get sick of them!!Β  I’m even making them for our friends who just had their second baby last week (on Valentine’s Day!) so they can throw them in the oven whenever they choose.Β  These are also great served as appetizers.

Freezer Friendly Chicken Taquitos

You’ll find the instructions for freezing and baking at the end of the recipe.Β  My advice to you is to go ahead and make a TON of these one afternoon, so they’ll be ready for you in the freezer whenever you need that last minute meal.Β  The best part?Β  You do not even have to wait to thaw them before baking!Β  Brilliant!

This is the BEST Baked Chicken Taquitos recipe out there! Store them in the freezer for a quick weeknight meal.

Course: Appetizer, Main Course
Cuisine: Mexican, Tex-Mex
Keyword: Chicken Taquitos
Servings: 10 -12 servings
Ingredients
  • 3 ounces cream cheese , softened
  • 1/4 cup green salsa
  • 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice (juice from half a lime)
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 3 Tbsp chopped cilantro
  • 2 Tbsp sliced green onions
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican flavored cheese
  • small flour or corn tortillas
  • kosher salt
  • cooking spray
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, salsa, lime juice, ground cumin, chili powder, onion powder and garlic. Once combined, stir in the cilantro and green onions. Add the chicken and cheese; mix thoroughly.
  3. (If you decided to prep this in advance, refrigerate the mixture at this point until ready to continue.)
  4. Working with a few tortillas at a time, heat them in the microwave between two paper towels until they are soft enough to roll (about 20 – 30 seconds).
  5. Spoon 2-3 Tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the lower third of a tortilla. Roll the tortilla as tightly as you can.
  6. Place the rolled tortilla seam side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas until the mixture is gone. Make sure the taquitos are not touching each other. Spray the tops lightly with cooking spray and sprinkle with kosher salt.
  7. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes or until crisp and golden.
  8. Serve with salsa, sour cream or guacamole.
  9. **To freeze: Before baking, freeze the taquitos in a single layer on a baking sheet for about 20 minutes, then place in a labeled freezer bag and store up to 3 months. To bake a frozen taquito (no need to thaw first): Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and bake for 15-20 minutes.

    One of my favorite make-now-bake-later recipes is Martha Stewart’s recipe for spinach and proscuitto lasagna.

    It uses no-bake lasagna noodles. Serves 4. And tastes amazingly delicious. (And I hate spinach.)

    I have bookmarked this recipe! It is going to get made here at my house and I will be freezing some. Your picture appears to be of a flour tortilla – have you tried it with corn? What is your preference?

    Thanks for the recipe!

      Hi RobbingPeter,

      Thanks for stopping by! I haven’t tried this recipe with corn torts, but only because I already know that flour tortillas are my preference. I’m not a big fan, in general, of corn tortillas. It’s totally up to you and your taste to which you use! πŸ™‚

    I made these taquitos last night, omitting the cilantro and reducing the lime juice to 1 tsp. They were wonderful! I made a single batch and the husband and I chowed down. I wanted leftovers, but they were so good that we couldn’t stop eating til every crumb was gone. Thank you for sharing your recipe! I have a cooking blog and did post my altered version of these taquitos along with a link to yours. Have a great day!

This was super easy and quick to make and the fact that you can make ahead and just fill your tortilla’s later is perfect for a busy family. I will definately make this recipe again and again!

      Hi Clayton Chick,

      Thanks for the feedback! Yes, as the recipe stands, they are really the size for a meal. You can either make them in smaller tortillas or cut them in half like you did when serving as an appetizer. Ben and I eat these all the time for a meal. πŸ™‚

    Made these for my family tonight and everyone liked them a lot! I doubled it, thinking that they sounded like they’d be good leftover, and I’m glad I did. My husband ate like 5! Still plenty for leftovers. My double batch made 20, by the way, and the filling was sort of gushing out the sides of a bunch of them. I upped the cilantro and lime, and used leftover rotisserie chicken for the meat. Yum. Thanks for the recipe!

    just a tip – if you plan to use parchment paper, you have to cook these at 400 instead of 425 like instructed. my parchment paper burned & stunk up my whole house. right on the box it said “oven safe to 400 degrees”. im lucky it didnt catch fire.

      Interesting. I’ve used parchment paper many times for these and never had that problem. I also use parchment paper every time I make homemade pizza on my baking stone (as do other friends I know), and bake at 500 degrees! Never thought to look at the box, but just did and it says withstands up to 420. Might depend on your oven. Thanks for the tip!

    Hi I just wanted to thank you soooo much for this recipe, I absolutely love it, it has become a staple in my house! I wanted to pass along a tip about freezing the Taquitos that works for me, I always make a double batch, and I flash freeze the prepared Taquitos in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once frozen, I transfer them all right into a freezer bag, or the tortilla bag if it’s recloseable. I find it easier than individually wrapping and unwrapping them! Hope this is helpful, and thanks again!!

    How do you flash freeze?

    Reply
    • Nikki says

      November 8, 2011 at 9:11 PM

      Flash freeze just means freezing the taquitos in a single layer for 15-20 minutes (until hardened) so that when you add them to the freezer bag, they will not all stick together. In other words, freeze individually on a single layer for about 15 minutes (then store all together in a freezer bag).

    I saw this recipe on pinterest and made them last night. I cooked a whole chicken in the crock all day, shredded the meat, then made the recipe as written. I used WW light cream cheese and white corn tortillas and had nonfat greek yogurt (aka sour cream) and mashed avocado on the side. I also doubled the recipe and froze half for another day since they can cook from frozen. I served them with roasted peppers and onions. They were fantastic! The whole family loved them. Definitely making the regular rotation.

    I just made these for dinner, and they were super easy and very tasty. After finishing eating 2, and thinking that there was just “something” missing to make it perfect, I realized I forgot the shredded cheese. Maybe that’s it. πŸ™‚ I made mine with wheat tortillas, cuz’ that’s what I had, and they were pretty good. But of course when you sprinkle kosher salt on top, it’s gonna’ be good. πŸ™‚ My 5 year old said he’s eat them again, if there was less cream cheese, so overall, I’m keeping this recipe.

    I used to buy frozen taquitos at the grocery…until we got ridiculously frugal. This kind of frozen food just didn’t make the budget cut. Thanks to this recipe, I can now make taquitos myself with my leftover roasted chicken. In addition to being cheaper, I’m sure they’re much healthier than the frozen variety as well. Thanks so much!

    I’ve been staring at these in the oven… Literally drooling over the smell!! BTW… Should’ve listened to the 2-3 tablespoons of mixture per flour tortilla… Think I went a lil overboard because they are TOTALLY squishing out the ends!!! LOL! Ahhh, it’s beeping, now for the taste test!!

    I will remember to put cream cheese in the mix the next time I make these – yours look so awesome!

    I found this on Pinterest and loved it! My husband loves sweet corn (farmer) and not a fan of onions. So I added black beans (1/2 can) and 1 cup of sweet corn to the chicken mix. i also used dried onion to help still add flavor without using the green onions – turned out awesome!

    This was great!

      Hi Jenae,
      You can reheat them the same way as if they weren’t already baked. Just throw them in a preheated 400 to 425 degree oven for about 15 minutes or until crisp again. πŸ™‚

    Thank you for the recipe!

    I made my own flour tortillas today, and used those to make these. They ended up more like flautas than taquitos, but they were delicious! This recipe made 8 well-stuffed larger pieces. The tortillas were various sizes, but about 7″ diameter is probably a good guess.

    My changes:
    I didn’t have cilantro, so I left that out.
    I used a medium red salsa (… Pace? I think)
    I used mozzarella because I didn’t have any mexican cheese blend

    These were so good- I was sorry when I felt full! This is definitely a new favorite recipe! I grew up in Southern California, and so I’ve had a lot of (Americanized) Mexican food– this recipe is a definite keeper!

    I wonder what these would be like paired with an avocado creamy sauce… Mmmm. Next time!

    My husband and three kids loved these! They were super easy to prepare and the recipe was very forgiving with the substitutions I made. I am making them again tonight, but this time I’m doubling the recipe. I am also going to try a vegeterian version with corn, black beans, and spunach so that I can enjoy some too πŸ™‚ Thanks for a great recipe!

    Just have to say I have been making these for over a year now. (I checked– I pinned this over a year ago!) And they are a favorite still at my house. Great recipe! Thanks so much.
    PS we have even in a pinch made them with canned chicken. Shockingly still great!

    We cooked 2 whole chickens this week. This worked out great. Made some for dinner and everyone loved them. I went ahead and made extra and freezed them for later. Will definitely be making again.

    This is my very favorite Pinterest recipe. I buy the 42 oz pulled rotisserie chicken breast package from Costco and make a triple batch, flash freezing as recommended. It makes 36 using corn tortillas. LOVE having a delicious meal ready for nights we have baseball, etc. and they’re so easy to heat my teenager makes his own. I use whipped cream cheese, which makes them lighter but also makes them easier to stir together. And I find that if I use Frontera brand tomatillo salsa I don’t need the lime. Thanks!

      Thank you, Carrie! That is a high honor! πŸ™‚ What brand of corn tortillas do you use? I have found sometimes they fall apart if I use corn so would love your recommendation! And thank you for the other tips! We love having these in our freezer for convenient meals, too!
