Shredded Beef Taquitos
Shredded Beef Taquitos are simple and flavorful. The crunch of the corn tortilla against the perfectly shredded beef and melted cheese is a winning combination!

Course: Main Course, Snack
Servings: 12 taquitos
- 3 cups shredded beef see link below
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 12 small corn tortillas
- Seasoning for the meat optional
- 2 tbsp oil
Season meat if desired.
Heat the tortillas up in the microwave sandwiched between two damp paper towels. While the tortillas are very warm and moist roll 1/4 cup of shredded meat and a generous tablespoon of shredded cheese up into the tortilla.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Fry the taquitos seam side down first for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until crisp. Roll and repeat on all sides. I usually fry them in a few batches.
Cool slightly and then serve with sour cream, salsa or anything else you can dream up!
