Name: Keto Taquitos
Prep time: 15 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 1 dz.
Ingredients: 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil; 1/2 onion, finely chopped; 4 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tsp. ground cumin; 1 tsp. chili powder; 2 c. shredded chicken; 2/3 c. red enchilada sauce; 4 tbsp. freshly chopped cilantro, plus more for garnish; Kosher salt; 2 c. shredded cheddar; 2 c. shredded Monterey jack; Sour cream, for serving (optional)

Step 1Preheat oven to 375° and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook until slightly soft, 3 minutes. Add garlic and spices and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes more. Add chicken and enchilada sauce, then bring mixture to a simmer. Stir in cilantro, season with salt, and remove from heat.

Step 2Make taquito shells: In a medium bowl, mix together cheeses. Divide mixture into twelve 3 ½" piles on prepared baking sheet. Bake until cheese is melty and slightly golden around the edges, about 10 minutes. Let cool 2 to 4 minutes, then peel shells off parchment. Add a small pile of chicken to each and roll tightly. Repeat until all taquitos are made.

Step 3Garnish with cilantro and serve with sour cream, for dipping.
