Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups shredded cooked beef
  • 12 (6-inch) corn tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • Sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and queso fresco for serving

Method
 

  1. Wrap the tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave for 30 seconds until warm and pliable.
  2. Place about 2 tablespoons of beef near one edge of each tortilla, roll tightly, and secure with a toothpick if needed.
  3. Preheat oven to 425°F. Brush taquitos with oil, place seam-side down on a baking sheet, and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until golden and crisp.
  4. Serve hot with your chosen toppings.

Notes

Store-bought shredded beef works well here. If you fry instead, heat ½ inch of oil to 350°F and cook in small batches for 2 to 3 minutes until deeply browned, then drain on paper towels.
