Ingredients

- 2/3 cup Greek yogurt (0% fat is fine)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 teaspoons chipotle pepper adobo sauce
- salt + pepper
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1/2 medium onion (diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 chicken breasts (grilled and shredded)
- 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1 cup Monterrey jack, or pepper jack cheese (shredded)
- 18 -20 corn or flour tortillas
- guacamole (for serving (optional))

Steps
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
-
In a small skillet saute the onion and garlic until soft and fragrant. Take off heat and set aside.
-
Mix together the cream cheese, greek yogurt, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, chili powder, cumin, onion, and garlic until combined (a mixer makes this easier but can be done by hand).
-
Fold in the chicken and shredded cheese until well coated.
-
Work with 3 tortillas at a time, microwave for 15-20 seconds on a plate before filling and rolling.
-
Spoon 2-3 Tbsp of filling into a line across the lower 1/3 each tortilla.
-
Working quickly roll each tortilla up tightly and place seam-side down on the pan. Do not over fill the tortillas or they will rip.
-
Either brush the taquitos with olive oil or use olive oil spray.
-
Bake 15-20 minutes, until crispy.
-
Serve with ranch dressing, guacamole, and sour cream if desired.
