These Chicken Flautas are a great dinner if you don’t have a lot of time but still want a family-pleasing meal. I love dipping these in sour cream or salsa!
Chicken Flautas are surprisingly filling and one batch goes a long way. It can feed a family for dinner or you can freeze/refrigerate for snacks throughout the week. Usually each kid will only eat one for a snack after school. We love dipping these in sour cream, salsa, guacamole, and/or ranch dressing.
Chicken Flautas are also a great game day food. They can be eaten with your hands and they aren’t messy. I like this recipe for using up leftover chicken. It can also be made up even quicker with canned chicken. Check out the video below to see how easy these are to make!
