If you cook the chicken in a slow cooker all day long these buffalo chicken taquitos come together pretty fast. Other options are to have a chicken already cooked in t he fridge, a rotisserie chicken, or even canned chicken works with this.  Add the warm chicken in a bowl with cream cheese, buffalo sauce,  and stir. Stuff  the chicken in a flour tortilla and bake them in the oven. I used the broiler to get them a little extra crispy on top. Then start dipping. Finger food is perfect for game day. It’s a lot like buffalo chicken dip wrapped inside a tortilla.

Ingredients
  •      8 oz low fat cream cheese
  •     ⅛ cup buffalo sauce
  •     2 cups cooked and shredded chicken
  •     12 small flour tortillas (low carb)
SAUCE:
  •     Fat free Ranch Dressing

Instructions
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Mix cream cheese and buffalo sauce until well combined.
  • Stir in chicken until well combined.
  • Place 2-3 Tablespoons of mixture spread into a thin line onto center of flour tortilla.
  • Place on lightly greased cookie sheet and repeat for remaining taquitos.
  • Once taquitos are arranged on cookie sheet, lightly spray the tops with cooking spray.
  • Bake at 425 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until taquitos are golden brown.

Notes
  • Recipe adapted from Chef in Training
  • I sprayed the tortillas with cooking spray and baked in a 375 degree oven. Then I turned the oven on to broil to brown them a bit. Also left out blue cheese dressing in the taquitos and used reduced fat ranch for dipping.
  • Use a low carb tortilla for these.
  • 1 whole taquito is 4 points. The picture shows them cut in half.
