Description
Make crispy, golden Frozen Taquitos in the Air Fryer in under 10 minutes. This no-prep method is perfect for fast snacks, appetizers, or easy dinners with all the crunch and none of the oil.
Ingredients
Use your favorite frozen taquitos—chicken, beef, cheese, or vegetarian. Optional toppings and dips include sour cream, guacamole, salsa, shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, and lime wedges.
Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F or 204°C for 3 minutes. Arrange frozen taquitos in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overlapping. Air fry for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crisping. Once golden brown and hot in the center, remove from the air fryer and let cool for 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately with your choice of dips or toppings.
Notes
Do not thaw taquitos before cooking. No oil is required, though a light spray of cooking oil can enhance crispiness. Cook times may vary slightly by air fryer brand and model. For a loaded taquito experience, top with cheese, lettuce, and chopped tomatoes after air frying.
