One recipe my family loves is this Air Fryer Rotisserie Chicken and Cheese Taquito recipe. The store-bought Taquitos are not tasty at all! I know when I tried them, they tasted like cardboard. So I decided to come up with a recipe of my own, so I could make them for the family. The best part is they are not fried but taste just as good! I love making this Air Fryer Rotisserie Chicken and Cheese Taquito recipe in my Air Fryer and I know you all will want to go out and get the ingredients to make these yourself.
These air fried Taquitos only take about 15 minutes to make and they come out so crispy and delicious without using all that oil like you would in a deep fryer. Plus these are so yummy and crispy and let’s not forget they’re more healthy than cooking them the traditional way.
