Tips:
- Use a large skillet or griddle to cook the chicken in batches, so that it doesn't overcrowd the pan and cook evenly.
- Shred the chicken with two forks, or use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on low speed.
- Use a variety of cheeses in the filling, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, and pepper Jack, for a more flavorful taquito.
- To make the taquitos ahead of time, assemble them and then freeze them on a baking sheet. Once they are frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag and store them for up to 2 months. When ready to bake, preheat the oven and bake the taquitos from frozen for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through.
- Serve the taquitos with your favorite dipping sauce, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
