Baked Chicken Taquitos

Ingredients

• 8 oz (227 g) raw boneless skinless chicken breast
• ¼ cup 2% cream cheese, softened to room temperature
• 2 tbsp partly skimmed mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1 medium green onion, thinly sliced
• ⅛ tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp chili powder
• ½ tsp ground cumin
• ¼ tsp garlic powder
• 4 5-inch (13 cm) soft corn tortillas
• 1 large egg, beaten

Directions

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line one baking sheet with foil and one with parchment paper.
• Place chicken breast on parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Shred chicken using two forks; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together chicken, cream cheese, mozzarella, green onion, black pepper, chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder.
• Warm the tortillas in the microwave for about 20 seconds to help prevent them from cracking.
• Spoon about ¼ cup of the filling onto the centre of each tortilla and roll them up, leaving the ends open.
• Brush the tops of the rolls with egg.
• Place the taquitos seam side down on the foil-lined baking sheet.
• Bake for about 15 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until taquitos are crispy and slightly brown.
