Ingredients
Serves 4
2 cups pico de gallo
½ cup cooked, finely chopped chicken
½ cup no salt added canned corn or frozen corn, thawed
¼ cup chopped green onion
¼ chopped green bell pepper
½ cup shredded low sodium Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
12 corn tortillas
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Instructions
Wash hands thoroughly with warm water and soap. Wash fresh vegetables before preparing.
Heat oven to 425° F. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup pico de gallo, chicken, corn, green onion, bell pepper, and cheese.
Soften tortillas on the stovetop or in the microwave oven, and spoon a heaping tablespoon of filling onto the center of each tortilla. Roll up tightly and secure each with a toothpick.
Place rolled tortillas seam side down on a baking sheet and brush each lightly with oil. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until crisp and lightly browned.
Place 3 taquitos on each plate and serve with remaining pico de gallo.
