Healthy Chicken Flautas Recipe
One of my favorite anti-inflammatory meals is this delicious and healthy chicken flautas recipe. It is easy to make and tastes great too!
Ingredients
- 3 Cups Shredded Chicken Breast
- 1/4 Onion sliced
- 2 Tbsp Avocado Oil Based Mayonnaise
- 12 Grain Free Tortillas
- 1/2 Head Romaine Lettuce Chopped
- 1 Cup Feta Cheese
- 1 Bunch Cilantro
- 1 cup Pico de gallo
- 1 cup Salsa Roja
- 1/3 cup Avocado Oil for frying
- Salt, Pepper, Cumin to taste
Instructions
- Start by heating a tablespoon of avocado or coconut oil over medium-high heat, and sautee the chicken with the onion for about 5 minutes.
- Add the salt pepper, and cumin to taste, and a little bit of chopped cilantro, and let cook for another 3 minutes or so.
- Combine the above mixture with the mayonnaise, and set aside.
- To put the flautas together, warm up the tortillas and fill each with the chicken mixture before rolling them up and sticking a toothpick through them to keep them from unrolling.
- Add the rest of the oil and lower to medium heat. Cook each flauta in the hot oil for a couple of minutes, or until golden brown. Use tongs to remove from the skillet, putting them in a large bowl or a paper towel-lined plate.
- You can then pat away any excess oil before putting them on a plate and covering them generously with lettuce, pico de gallo, feta cheese, and salsa.
