this recipe is great to throw in the crock pot and have ready for a busy day or evening. it's an easy dump before church. the unexpected secret ingredient- worcestershire sauce- (which my dad forced me to learn to pronounce as a child) gives a great flavor.
chicken taquitos
and taquito crock pot chicken
an original recipe by rachelle (inspired by uncle webb.)
taquito crock pot chicken
3 frozen chicken breasts
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup water
1/2 onion, diced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon pepper
combine in a crock pot and cook on low for four hours. shred and taste for seasoning. add salt and pepper if needed, and more paprika for color, if needed. keep warm.
chicken taquitos
12 corn tortillas
1 recipe taquito crock pot chicken
shredded cheese
1 recipe blender guacamole
put 1 heaping Tablespoon taquito chicken in the middle of a corn tortilla. top with a heaping Tablespoon shredded cheese. cook on a hot griddle spread with a layer of oil or butter. cook tortillas opened flat until softened, then fold in half like a taco. brown both sides. keep warm in a tortilla keeper. (norpro makes a great big one. i love it for pancakes, tacos, tortillas...) serve with guacamole, salsa and sour cream.
variation: put 1 heaping Tablespoon taquito chicken in the end of a corn tortilla and roll up as tight as you can. secure with a toothpick. fry in hot oil a couple of minutes on both sides until golden brown. top immediately with shredded cheese. serve with shredded lettuce and guacamole.

Hi Rachelle,
ReplyDeleteI found your food blog from Laurice's. I am cousins with Derrick. I have to say you are one fabulous cook and I'm glad you started this blog!! I'm always looking for new recipes. I've even tried a few on here and have to say they have been a big success!!! I just did your Perfect Sunday Roast today. It was delicious. Just wanted to say keep them coming. I'll have to try these taquitos soon.
