Oven Fried Flautas - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 lb extra lean ground beef
1 medium onion
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon dry oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup mild chili sauce or 1/2 cup canned tomato sauce
12 corn tortillas
cooking spray
Preparation
-
Heat oven to 400 degrees.
Place ground beef, onion, and garlic in a large skillet that has been sprayed with cooking spray and brown over medium-high heat.
Using a spatula crumble beef into small pieces as it cooks.
Add the chili powder, oregano, paprika, cumin, pepper, Worcestershire sauce and chile sauce to the pan and mix well.
Wrap 6 of the corn tortillas at a time in a damp kitchen towel and warm briefly in the microwave- just enough to soften.
For each flauta, spray both sides of 2 tortillas with cooking spray.
Lay the tortillas down so they overlap by 4 inches.
Spoon 1/4 cup or so of filling down the side of the paired tortillas and roll up tightly, the beef mixture should be in the center.
Place on a heavy cookie sheet.
Repeat with the others.
Bake flautas, at 400 degrees until the tortillas are crisp, about 15 minutes.
Serve with salsa, sour cream and guacamole.
