BEEF TAQUITOS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400°. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook them for 3 minutes, stirring often. Add the beef and use a wooden spoon or a spatula to break it up while it cooks, until it is no longer red, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup of the salsa, the chili powder, and the salt and pepper. Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
• Place the tortillas on a plate and cover them with damp paper towels. Microwave them until warm and pliable, about 45 seconds. Top each tortilla with 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture, spreading it to an inch from the edges. Sprinkle cheese evenly over the beef.
• Roll up the tortillas and place them on a foil-lined baking sheet with the seam sides down. Brush the taquitos lightly with vegetable oil, then bake them until the filling is heated through and the tortillas are lightly browned, about 8 to 12 minutes. Serve them hot with sour cream and/or salsa.

BEEF TAQUITOS

Steps:

• Place the roast in a crock pot. Add the garlic cloves, onion, bouillon cubes, and cover the roast with water. Cook on high for 6 hours. Once the roast is cooked and fork tender cool the roast until cool enough to handle and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a saute pan on medium heat.
• While the oil is heating you can start to assemble the meat for the taquitos.
• Place the shredded meat, shredded cheese, and green chiles in a large bowl and toss to combine.
• Now that your oil is heated add one tortilla at a time into the hot oil for 20 seconds on each side to "soften" the tortilla. As each tortilla is softened place them on a plate stacked on top of each other.
• Once you have about 40 tortillas "softened" you can start preparing the taquitos.
• Line an aluminum pan with wax paper to place your prepared taquitos on.
• On a seperate plate, place two tablespoons of the meat mixture in the middle of a "softened" tortilla in the shape of a line going all the way across the tortilla. Gently fold one side of the tortilla over to meet the other side (it doesnt have to line up exactly. Carefully and tightly roll the tortilla into the shape of a cigar. Place the taquito seam side down on the wax paper lined pan.
• Continue to roll the remaining tortillas. If there is leftover meat soften more tortillas to continue rolling taquitos until all the meat is gone. Cover the taquitos with plastic wrap and place the pan in the freezer for 4 hours.
• If you are ready to prepare them you can bake them on an ungreased baking sheet for 11 minutes on 400 degrees or dry them in a pan on medium high for 2 minutes each side in two cups of oil. To keep them frozen simply take them from the pan and put the taquitos in a ziploc bag to prevent them from getting freezer burn. They freeze for up to one month.

• If using a deep fryer, heat oil to 350°F If using a pan, add enough oil to coat the surface of the pan and raise to medium heat.
• Microwave a few tortillas at a time on a paper towel to make the tortillas pliable. I warmed 4 tortillas for 45 seconds.
• Add a heaping tablespoon of beef, cheese, and salsa mixture to the center of a tortilla. Roll tortilla as tightly as possible and secure with a toothpick. NOTE: push filling in from both sides so keep it from falling out while frying.
• Cook a few taquitos at a time. If deep frying, cook for a few minutes or until golden brown. If using a pan, flip over after a few minutes and cook until both sides are golden brown.
• Move to drying rack with a paper towel underneath and allow to drain. When cool, remove toothpicks.
