Scoop big helpings over hot rice with lime and cilantro, or plain rice. Add a quick salad with lettuce, tomatoes, and dressing. Put out chips or soft tortillas for dipping the sauce. If you like, sprinkle extra cheese, green onions, or lime juice on top. Great for parties too—keep it warm so folks make their own nachos or bowls.

Servings: 4-6

Ingredients

20 oz box frozen chicken taquitos (about 10–12 taquitos, still frozen)
1 cup chunky salsa (mild or medium)
1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup frozen corn
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese, divided
1/2 cup sour cream (more for topping if you want)

Taquito Chicken Party Slow Cooker: Directions

Lay the frozen taquitos flat in a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. It’s fine if they touch or overlap a little—just keep them even.
Pour chunky salsa all over the taquitos so they get coated. This makes them tasty and wet while cooking.
Spread drained black beans and frozen corn on top of the salsa.
Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded cheese over it all. Save the other half for later.
Put the lid on. Cook it on LOW heat 4–5 hrs or on high heat 2–3 hours. Taquitos get soft and hot—they’ll start to break a bit, and that’s good.
Use two forks to chop the taquitos into small bites in the pot. Mix with beans, corn, salsa, and cheese for a chunky sauce.
Stir in sour cream to make it creamy. Taste it—add a tiny bit of salt if needed from your salsa.
Top with the rest of the cheese (1/2 cup). Cover and let it melt on LOW or WARM for 5–10 minutes.
Dish into bowls hot. Add sides and extras like more sour cream, cilantro, or green onions if you have them.
