Crispy Chicken Flautas
Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup minced onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped black olives
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • oil for frying, or as needed
  • 8 flour tortillas
  • toothpicks
Instructions
1
Heat butter in a cooking vessel over a moderate temperature setting; blend the fat with flour until it forms a uniform mixture. Introduce an onion into this blend and stir constantly until the vegetable is tender, approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Incorporate black olives, lemon juice, a tablespoon of oil, paprika, black pepper, and salt; stir until the ingredients are well combined and heated through, roughly 2 minutes.
2
Combine chicken with this blend; withdraw the cooking vessel from heat and cover it to retain warmth.
3
Heat oil in a large, substantial container or deep frying device over a high heat level.
4
Stuff tortillas with the chicken mixture. Envelop the filling within the tortilla and secure it with a toothpick.
5
Prepare rolled tortillas in batches, frying them in hot oil until they acquire a golden color, approximately 2 minutes. Utilize a spoon or tongs to transfer the fried tortillas to a paper towel-lined surface; serve warm.
