Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil and sauté onion and jalapeno until soft (about 4 minutes).
In a mixing bowl, combine sautéed veggies with shredded chicken, spices, green chiles, lime juice, and cheese. Mix well.
Microwave tortillas for about 30 seconds until pliable. Place about 3 tablespoons of filling on each tortilla's bottom third and roll tightly into flautas.
Arrange flautas seam-side down on the wire rack. Spray lightly with cooking oil and bake for 18 to 23 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
