The simplest of Mexican dinners!
My 3 Ingredient Chicken Taquito Bake is fun, easy and approved for busy families.
Don't ever say I don't give you easy dinners!
This one is beyond easy.
You see I have a 12 year old boy who is obsessed with taquitos. I think it started a few years back when every once in awhile the school cafeteria had "taquito day" and he came home raving about them.
Then after a visit to Costco I found the economy size pack {in both beef and chicken varieties}in their freezer section. A simple quick air fry and he was smitten.
Have I ever given you a 3 ingredient dinner?
Let me think.....there was my 2 Ingredient Everything Bagel recipe, my uber popular 3 Step Crock Pot Mashed Potatoes and most recently my 4 Ingredient Pumpkin Streusel Muffins.
But a whole dinner?
I honestly don't think I've ever given you a WHOLE meal that was just 3 ingredients.
This one was so much fun!
It's not uncommon for me to wake up in the middle of the night or first thing in the morning and be thinking about a recipe. And that is exactly what happened here.
I woke up thinking taquitos, green sauce and queso fresco cheese.
I have no idea why - but I knew I had to throw these 3 ingredients together to see if they tasted as good as I imagined.
I've always loved the taste of green enchilada sauce. It's not hot or spicy, but it has a nice tang to it. Mix that with crumbly Mexican queso fresco cheese and they go perfect together. Queso fresco cheese looks like and resembles feta cheese, but tastes different - it's super mild and melts amazing. You can find it with all of the other cheeses, often near the Mexican foods section.
If you have leftovers it's also great melted in omelets!
Both of these - the green sauce and the cheese taste amazing over the crispy taquitos. And make sure you get them crispy {you'll read how to make that happen in the directions}.
Feel free to grab beef taquitos at the store if that is what you prefer. We like both! The chicken and cheese variety is just what I happened to have on hand in my freezer.
After taking these out of the oven, I topped ours with shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes {as they are STILL coming out of my garden}. The kids also grabbed sour cream - because, well they like sour cream on everything!
They ate half the pan one night and a simple reheat in the oven the next night as leftovers tasted just the same - maybe better?
If you make this recipe would you do me a favor and give it a star rating below? It means the world to me! I'm looking forward to seeing if you love this simple, easy dinner as much as we did.
And if you want a few more Mexican dishes of mine, here are a few favorites.
Em Braga, durante um café com meu irmão, surgiu assunto sobre cassinos digitais. Eu procurava algo organizado e que funcionasse bem no telemóvel. Descobri rolldorado enquanto pesquisava opções em Portugal. O site mostra campanhas pensadas para utilizadores portugueses, explicando condições de bônus e regras de participação de forma simples. Para mim virou um passatempo interessante nos fins de semana.
ReplyDeleteCricket fans might be interested in exploring the sports events section of the official Betvisa site website. The platform typically features various tournaments and matches, where users can view odds and select suitable betting markets. This may be especially relevant for users in Bangladesh, as cricket remains one of the most popular sports in the region. Many users first review team statistics and current events before making betting decisions. This approach helps them better navigate sporting events and use the platform's features more consciously.
ReplyDeleteHey all, I’m from the UK and usually discover new casinos through forum discussions. Recently someone posted about a snow-themed slot session that turned out surprisingly profitable. That comment led me down a small search rabbit hole until I found Yeti Win Casino in the middle of my browsing. The icy theme made it stand out immediately. I tried a few games just for curiosity. At first I wasn’t having much luck, but one of the bonus rounds appeared unexpectedly and helped me recover everything I’d spent earlier.
