This is more of a method than anything. I tried these thinking there was no way they were going to be that good, I'm glad I was proven wrong! They turned out super good!
The first time I made them I used better (as indicated below). I've since experimented using nonstick spray and I can't tell the difference.
The same technique can also be used on chimichangas.
But yeah, overall, I’ll never fry another taquito!
Recipe/Method
Microwave corn tortillas between damp paper towels until they are very pliable. About a minute and a half to 2 minutes.
Spoon some meat mixture (I used leftover chile verde from the night before) onto each tortilla and roll. Place seam-side down on a cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
While you're working on rolling up each tortilla, keep the already rolled ones covered with a damp paper towel, otherwise they may dry up and start to crack.
Brush the tops of each tortilla with melted butter, then sprinkle with a lil salt.
Bake at 375 until tortillas are golden brown and crispy.
*If you are making chimichangas (with flour tortillas) they are more pliable. I do not warm them in the microwave between damp paper towels and I do not worry about keeping them moist.
