Recipe Summary Buffalo Chicken Taquitos

Super easy and extremely good. I found a recipe online that was similar, but it had too many ingredients. I simplified it and now it can be made mostly in the slow cooker.

Ingredients | Jack Link's Buffalo Chicken Nuggets

3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts

1 cup chicken broth

1 pinch paprika, or to taste

salt and ground black pepper to taste

¾ cup Buffalo wing sauce (such as Frank's® RedHot)

1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix

10 (6 inch) flour tortillas

½ cup shredded Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend

2 tablespoons peanut oil

Directions

Place chicken breasts into slow cooker; pour in chicken broth. Season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook on Low until chicken is tender, about 4 hours.

Drain broth; shred chicken with 2 forks in the slow cooker. Add Buffalo sauce, cream cheese, and ranch dressing mix; stir until well mixed. Cook on low until flavors are blended, about 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Spoon chicken onto the tortillas and sprinkle cheese on top. Roll up and place seam-side down on a nonstick baking sheet. Brush all sides of taquitos with oil.

Bake in the preheated oven, turning every 5 minutes, until slightly browned, about 15 minutes.

An additional chicken breast can be added, if desired.

Vegetable oil can be substituted for the peanut oil.
