Ingredients
- Ingredients
2 tbsp corn oil
1/4 cup white onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup jarred jalapeños, finely chopped
1/4 cup spicy tomato salsa
1 1/2 cups shredded cooked turkey chicken can be used as an alternative
2/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3 tbsp cream cheese
salt and black pepper to taste
8 small flour tortillas
avocado oil cooking spray
- Alternative Ingredients
Turkey can replace chicken for a leaner option.
Cheddar cheese can replace Mexican cheese blend for a stronger flavor.
Cream cheese can replace Neufchâtel cheese for a richer texture.
Flour tortillas can replace corn tortillas for those preferring a softer texture.
Directions
- Sauté Aromatics – Heat the corn oil in a skillet on medium heat. Add the chopped onions, cooking until they are translucent, about 3-5 minutes. Introduce the minced garlic, cooking until just fragrant, roughly 1 minute.
- Add Fillings – Stir in the jalapeños and salsa to the skillet, integrating them with the aromatics for about two minutes. Follow this by mixing in the turkey and both types of cheese, heating just until the cheese is melted, an additional 3 minutes. Finish with a seasoning of salt and pepper.
- Prepare Tortillas – Soften the tortillas by warming them in the skillet over medium heat, making them pliable for about 1 minute on each side.
- Assemble Taquitos – Lay out the warmed tortillas, distributing the turkey mixture evenly among them. Roll each tortilla tightly around the filling.
- Air Fry – Activate the ‘Air Fryer’ mode on the Instant Pot to 400°F (200°C). Place the taquitos in a single unstacked layer in the basket. Lightly spray them with avocado oil. Cook for 6 minutes, turn over the taquitos carefully, mist again with oil, and continue air frying for an additional 3 minutes until each taquito is crispy and golden.
