Method
Taquito Directions
Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, refried beans, shredded cheese, salt, ground cumin, and chili powder. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Assemble the Taquitos
Take a corn tortilla, place about 2 tablespoons of the filling mixture in the center, and roll it tightly. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.
Fry the Taquitos
Carefully place the rolled taquitos seam-side down into the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Margarita Directions
Prepare the Glass
Rub a lime wedge around the rim of a glass and dip it into salt to coat the rim.
Mix the Margarita
In a cocktail shaker, combine tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds.
Serve the Margarita
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass over fresh ice. Garnish with a lime wedge.
