Chicken Taquitos

This is a super yummy appetizer or you can use as a main dish.

Makes 16 taquitos.

3 chicken breasts
1 8 oz. package cream cheese, softened
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
salt and pepper
1/2 c. water
Mexican cheese
flour tortillas

serving suggestions: salsa, sour cream, cilantro dressing

Mix softened cream cheese, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and water together. Put half of mixture on bottom of crock pot. Place chicken breasts over then top with remaining mixture. Cook on Low for 6 hrs or High for 3 hrs.

Lay out tortillas, place a small amount of chicken mixture on each one, then Mexican cheese. Roll into tight rolls. You can make ahead and refrigerate or you can bake them now. Grease baking sheet. Place seam end on bottom. Spray taquitos with cooking spray to help with browning. Bake at 400 degrees for about 15-20 minutes until tortilla gets slightly browned. You may need to roll them half way to get them evenly browned. Serve with salsa, sour cream, or cilantro dressing.
