Ingredients

  • 6 ten inch flour or corn tortillas.
  • 1 medium red onion diced small
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • pinch salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 rare grilled strip loin steaks diced
  • 1/2 cup barbeque sauce
  • 1 tbsp chilli powder
  • 1 tsp chipotle powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 cup small diced cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. To a small saute pan over medium heat add the onion, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper.
  3. Saute only until the onions soften but are not browned. Remove from heat and add the remaining ingredients to the pan. (Except the tortillas.)
  4. Toss together well and divide the filling between the 6 tortillas. Roll the tortillas as tightly as possible and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, seam side down. Lightly brush the outsides of the taquitos with olive oil and bake for 20 minutes or so or until the outsides are crispy and golden brown.
  5. Serve with avocado and tomato or your favorite salsa.
