I’m tossing another Super Bowl dish at ya. Baked Buffalo Chicken Taquitos. Go long.
I’m so lame.
My darling husband isn’t much for appetizer or snack-type foods. Is he crazy?!! I know a few things that he can’t resist though and one of those things is buffalo chicken. The man loves all things buffalo chicken. Last year, I made these buffalo chicken bites. This year, it’s buffalo chicken taquitos. Because my man also loves taquitos. And well, so do I.
Ingredients
- 4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese
- 1/3 cup buffalo sauce (can add more if desired)
- 1/2 tsp. onion powder
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 2 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (colby and monterey jack cheese also works well)
- 12 6-inch flour tortillas
- cooking spray
- ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, sour cream (for dipping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.
- In a bowl, stir together the cream cheese and buffalo sauce. Then mix in the chicken, garlic and onion powders, and the cheese until everything is well-combined. If it seems dry, you can add in more buffalo sauce if desired.
- Place the tortillas on a microwavable plate. Place a damp paper towel on top and microwave for about 20 seconds.
- Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture down the middle of each tortilla. Roll it up nice and tight and place the on the baking sheet seam-side down. Spray the tops with some cooking spray.
- Bake for about 15 minutes. Flip over and spray with a little more of the spray. Bake for another 5 minutes or until golden brown.

My kids love chicken taquitos…. I always buy a big box from Costco as after school snacks and it’s finished in a week. These look so much yummier.
We are snack lovers in our house… these would simply disappear. 
Have a great weekend.

I’m not quite a fan for Taquitos. But Buffalo Chicken Taquitos? I’m jumping all in. I guess I don’t like Taquitos because they usually don’t taste much. I bet these Buffalo Chicken version is much better!
These are perfect game day treats.

I heart buffalo sauce and put it on nearly everything! I’m not ashamed to say I could put down an entire batch of these, no problem!

Do you cook the chicken first or no?
Hi Hanna, yes, make sure the chicken if fully cooked first. I like to use rotisserie chicken from the grocery store and just shred it myself.
