Ingredients
  • 1½ cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded if desired, and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons pickled jalapeños, chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • ⅓ cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack or cheddar cheese
  • 16-20 corn tortillas, warmed
  • olive oil, for rubbing
  • CILANTRO RANCH
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425° F.
  2. In a bowl, combine the chicken, cream cheese, jalapeño, pickled jalapeños, cilantro, dill, and green onions. Stir in the cheese and buffalo sauce.
  3. Warm the tortillas for 30 seconds to 1 minute in the microwave, until pliable. On a baking sheet, rub the tortillas with olive oil. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the chicken down the middle of the tortilla. Roll up and place seam-side down on the baking sheet. Bake for 5-8 minutes, then flip and cook another 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the tortillas are crisp.
  4. Meanwhile, make the ranch. Combine all ingredients in a bowl (or use a blender) and mix until creamy. Season with salt.
  5. Serve the taquitos topped with buffalo sauce, ranch, and any other desired toppings.
