Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
- Shred chicken to make about 4 cups; discard bones and skin. In large bowl, toss chicken, cheese, onion, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, oregano and green chiles.
- Over gas burner or in skillet, heat tortillas until warm and pliable. Wrap tortillas in kitchen towel to keep warm.
- Working with 1 tortilla at a time, spoon about 2 tablespoons chicken mixture onto one side of tortilla. Wrap tortilla over filling and roll up. Place taquito seam side down on cookie sheet, gently pressing flat with palm of hand if needed to make sure taquito does not roll around. Repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken mixture, making sure to leave a bit of space between taquitos so they crisp nicely during baking. Brush tops of taquitos lightly with oil.
- Bake in center of oven 25 minutes, rotating pan once about halfway through baking.
- Meanwhile, cut avocado in half; remove pit. With spoon, scoop avocado flesh from shell into large bowl. With back of fork, mash avocado well. Fold in yogurt, lime juice and salt until thoroughly combined.

CHICKEN TAQUITOS
Smoked cheese and green salsa give these crispy chicken taquitos that extra yum! Thinner corn tortillas will work the best. If you can't find the smoked cheese blend in your area, try using regular smoked Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a medium bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, cheese, green salsa, and onion. Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the mixture onto tortillas, or enough so that when rolled up, each one is about 1 inch wide. Filling should not come to close to the ends, or it will fall out. Secure rolls with toothpicks.
- Fry rolls 4 or 5 at a time so there is enough room between them for even cooking. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Once they float, I leave them in for about another minute. If the taquitos are not crisp when cool, you haven't cooked them long enough. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sour cream, salsa and guacamole for dipping.

CREAMY SOUTHWESTERN CHICKEN DIP
My girlfriend makes this for parties and cookouts, and it's always a hit. The recipe was passed to her by a coworker of hers, so I'm not sure where it originated. It can be served immediately, or you can put it all together the night before and heat it up (step 3) the next day. It's really tasty and super-simple!

V'S SOFT TURKEY TAQUITOS WITH SOUTHWESTERN DIP
Every year my dad would make these taquitos with leftover turkey. The corn tortillas are lightly fried in oil, rolled with turkey and sealed on a griddle and come out soft with a nice crunch with the turkey still moist and delicious. These are awesome because they are not deep fried or baked. I took over the tradition and have been making these for years. My family won't eat any leftover turkey in any other form except these soft taquitos. We look forward to these as an appetizer or a meal served with my own Southwestern Dip, Cheese Sauce, Salsa and my Chunky Guacomole the day after thanksgiving.

Steps:
- Make the Dip and refrigerate ahead of time.
- Mix sour cream and mayonaise together in a bowl. Mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Add dry spices to sour cream and mayonaise mixture stir to combine, cover & refrigerate for 2 hours to allow flavors to meld.
- Taquito instructions: Heat oil in frying pan. Add one corn tortilla and fry for just a second, then turn and repeat. Place tortilla on a paper towel lined cookie sheet fitting about 6-8 per sheet. Place another papertowel over the tortillas and repeat with the rest until all are cooked. Sprinkle Salt over the tortillas as you go.
- Once all the tortillas have been lightly fried and are soft, take shredded turkey and place on tortilla in a line. Gently fold tight and place seam side down on another cookie sheet. Repeat until all the taquitos are rolled.
- Heat an electric skillet or griddle between 300-350' and oil surface generously. Place one taquito seam side down, add another right up against it and continue until you have a row across the skillet and taquitos are secure. Continue another row if you have room (I can generally cook about 25-30 at a time) Check the first taquito by rolling or using tongs to make sure seam is secure before turning. Roll taquitos left to right and let them cook 1-2 minutes, then roll again until they are secure and golden.
- Place taquitos on platter and serve with Southwestern Dip, Salsa, Guacomole, Sour Cream, heated cheese whiz or whatever you like!
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, flavorful ingredients.
- If you don't have a slow cooker, you can cook the chicken in a Dutch oven over low heat for 6-8 hours.
- To make the taquitos ahead of time, cook the chicken and assemble the taquitos, then freeze them. When you're ready to serve, thaw the taquitos and bake them in the oven.
- Serve the taquitos with your favorite dipping sauce, such as guacamole, salsa, or sour cream.
Conclusion:
These soft chicken taquitos with southwestern dip are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They're perfect for parties or potlucks, and they're also great for a quick and easy weeknight meal. So next time you're looking for a tasty and versatile recipe, give these taquitos a try. You won't be disappointed!
