Ingredients
- 1 Pack Delimex Taquitos
Instructions
1. Preheat your Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it warm up for about 2 minutes. A properly heated air fryer guarantees that your taquitos start cooking at the optimal temperature.
2. Prep Your Taquitos: While the air fryer is preheating, take the Delimex Taquitos out of the freezer. No need to thaw; they cook perfectly from frozen. If you’d like, lightly mist them with cooking oil and sprinkle on a bit of your chosen seasoning for that extra flavor punch.
3. Arrange in the Basket: Place the taquitos in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Ensure there’s some space between them to allow for good air circulation, which is key to getting them evenly crispy.
4. Cooking Time: Slide the basket into the air fryer and cook for about 6 minutes. If your taquitos are larger, they might need a couple of extra minutes. Halfway through, give the basket a gentle shake or use tongs to flip the taquitos. This ensures they get crispy and golden all around.
5. Check for Doneness: You’ll know your taquitos are ready when they have a golden-brown color and a crispy shell. Use caution when removing them from the air fryer; they’ll be hot!
6. Serving: Serve your crispy taquitos hot. They pair wonderfully with guacamole, sour cream, salsa, or a fresh cilantro-lime crema for dipping.
Notes
- Selecting Right: Choosing the right taquitos matters. Delimex offers various fillings, so select one that matches your taste preference and dietary needs.
- Seasoning: Experiment with different seasonings to find what best complements your choice of taquitos. Even a little lime zest can elevate the flavors.
- Cooking Temperature and Time: The suggested temperature and time are crucial for achieving that perfect crispness without drying out the filling.
- Arranging Taquitos: Proper arrangement in the basket is vital. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking and soggy spots.
- Serving Ideas: Get creative with your accompaniments. A side of Mexican rice or a fresh salad can turn your taquitos into a full meal.
