INSTRUCTIONS

1 Preheat oven to 425°F. Heat oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Add onions; cook 5 minutes until softened. Stir in tomatoes and Seasoning Mix; cook 5 minutes. Stir in shredded chicken and cook until heated through. Remove from heat.
2 Stir cheese into chicken mixture in skillet. Divide mixture evenly and spread down the center of each tortilla (about 1 heaping tablespoon per tortilla). Roll tightly into taquitos. Place taquitos, seam side down, on large foil-lined baking pan. Spray the tops of the taquitos lightly with no stick cooking spray and sprinkle evenly with salt.
3 Bake 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Allow to cool slightly. Serve with guacamole, sour cream, and pico de gallo, if desired.
