| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 4 cup | shredded rotisserie chicken |
| ¼ cup | The Original Louisiana Brand Hot Sauce |
| ¼ cup | Louisiana Hot Sauce - Smoked Chipotle |
| 8 oz | cream cheese, softened |
| 2 cup | shredded colby jack cheese |
| 12-16 | corn tortillas (6-inch) |
| 1 cup | vegetable oil |
In a large bowl mix the shredded chicken, Hot Sauces, cream cheese, and colby jack cheese.
Lay a tortilla out flat onto a work surface. Cover the remaining tortillas with a damp paper towel. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture down the center of the tortilla. Roll the tortilla up tightly and place seam side down onto a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Add the oil to a large frying pan over medium high heat. Using tongs place a few taquitos into the oil, seam side down, and cook for 1 minute. Carefully turn the taquito over and cook for 1 minute more. Remove the cooked taquitos from the pan onto a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat until all the taquitos are cooked.
Serve immediately.
