Chicken Taquitos started in the slow cooker, but baked in the oven!

Ingredients

  • 8 taco-sized flour or soft corn tortillas
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

For the Slow Cooker:

  • 2 uncooked chicken breasts
  • 1 packet taco seasoning (or 1.5-2 Tbsp taco or Fajita seasoning)
  • 6 ounces cream cheese, cubed
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions

  • Place chicken breasts in a slow cooker. Add seasoning, cream cheese cubes and water.
  • Cover and cook for 6-8 hours on low, or for 4-6 hours on high.
  • Shred the chicken with 2 forks right in the slow cooker.  Add cheddar cheese and stir to melt the cheese.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Spoon chicken mixture into the center of the tortillas.
  • Place on a greased cookie sheet.  Spray or brush with olive oil.  
  • Cook for 8-12 minutes.  Serve with salsa and/or sour cream.
