Air Fryer Buffalo Chicken Taquitos

Image
Our oven has been out of commission most of this year so we have been focused primarily on air fryer and stovetop recipes. I was craving taquitos so the family agreed on buffalo chicken taquitos. The buffalo sauce has a kick to it but it's balanced out with cream cheese and melty cheddar cheese. These taquitos are packed with flavor from the taco seasoning spices, garlic powder, black pepper, and chicken broth. It will be impossible to have just one. Air fryer buffalo chicken taquitos are crispy, flavorful, and easy to make. Enjoy a kick of heat with a creamy, cheesy filling! • Difficulty Level:  Easy-Moderate • Yield: 10 taquitos (serves 3) • Total cook time: 4-5 hours (including crockpot and air fryer times) • Total prep time:   5 - 10 minutes • Family friendly:  YES! If we had more, they would have been gone • Rating:  10/10 •  Topping suggestions:  Add sour cream and salsa on top or use it as a dip  Why You Will Love This Chicken Taquito Reci...
