Football season has started up again, and John loves when I can make something for him to snack on during the game!! These Corn and Black Bean Baked Taquitos are a hit for football parties and really any get together you want finger food appetizer.
Check out how easy it is to whip up these Corn and Black Bean Baked Taquitos!
Do you have a favorite food you make for football parties? I love making finger food that everyone can eat while they watch the game. Plus the less dishes I use the better off. That way I can enjoy the game and not have to be in the kitchen cleaning the entire time.
(Makes 12 taquitos)
Ingredients:
Corn kernels
Vegetable oil
Red onion
Minced garlic
Chili powder
Cayenne pepper
Black beans
Minced pickled jalapenos
Freshly squeezed lime juice
Mexican blend cheese
Corn tortillas
Kosher salt
Baking Sheet - I like to use baking sheets with sides so there is no way I can be clumsy and have the cookies slide right off into the oven {not that I want to admit that it has happened but I did learn my lesson.}
Parchment Paper - I am a huge fan of using parchment paper to make clean up and serving so much easier.
Heat resistant potholdersย - A couple of years ago we had a fire scare when we didn't realize we had turned a burner on and a cloth potholder caught fire. Thankfully we walked by the kitchen and saw the smoke and were able to get it out ourselves. Since then we have only used these heat-resistant potholders.
Directions:
Heat 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot, about 2 minutes. Add corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until kernels begin to brown and pop, 3 to 5 minutes; transfer corn to a medium bowl.
Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in the now-empty skillet over medium heat until shimmering; add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and chili powder and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute; stir in beans and cook until heated through about 1 minute. Return corn to the skillet and toss to combine; gently press mixture with a spatula to lightly crush black beans.
Transfer mixture a medium bowl, stir in jalapeรฑos, and lime juice.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Warm tortillas according to package directions until soft and pliable. Spoon 2 tablespoons of filling and 1 tablespoon of cheese onto the lower third of each tortilla and roll tightly. Place seam-side-down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Use the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to brush the tops of the taquitos lightly, and sprinkle with kosher salt. Bake 14-17 minutes, or until the tortillas are crisp and golden-brown. Serve with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.
