How to Make Keto Buffalo Chicken Taquitos

Here’s everything that you’ll need to know in order to bake these cheesy (and oh so yummy) keto-friendly taquitos:

Preheat the oven. Preheat your oven to 350℉.
Prepare the baking sheet. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the cheese. Arrange the mozzarella cheese slices on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake. Bake the cheese slices in the preheated oven for 7-10 minutes, or until golden.
Add the chicken. Remove the cheese from the oven and add a small pile of either chopped or shredded grilled chicken to each cheese slice and then roll tightly.
Serve. Serve warm with the homemade buffalo sauce.

What are Taquitos?

Taquitos, also known as rolled tacos, are a dish originating from Mexico that usually consists of rolled up tortillas stuffed with a filling that’s typically made with cheese and beef or chicken.

Since most traditional taco and taquito recipes use tortillas and other carb heavy items that are decidedly non-keto, most keto-friendly versions will use some type of low carb alternative for the taco shell (a great example is how this particular recipe uses baked cheese to make the shell).
