BAKED BLACK BEAN AND SPINACH FLAUTAS



Baked Black Bean and Spinach Flautas image

A vegetarian take on a classic Mexican dish. These delicious flautas are baked until crispy using cooking spray instead of vegetable oil to "fry" the tortillas. Topped with plain Greek yogurt for a wholesome and tasty alternative to sour cream.

Time 50m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 serving cooking spray
10 (6 inch) corn tortillas, or more to taste
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups chopped fresh spinach, or more to taste
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 (16 ounce) jar black bean and corn salsa
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, or to taste
1 (6 ounce) container Greek yogurt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Heat tortillas, 1 at a time, in a small skillet over medium heat until warm and soft, about 30 seconds per side.
  • Spray both sides of a tortilla with cooking spray. Spread about 1 tablespoon black beans down the middle, then top with spinach, about 1 teaspoon cilantro, 1 tablespoon salsa, and sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese and cumin. Roll the tortilla up and place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat to form remaining flautas. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt.

BAKED CHICKEN AND SPINACH FLAUTAS FROM HEALTHY. DELICIOUS.



Baked Chicken and Spinach Flautas from Healthy. Delicious. image

I found this recipe online: Baked flautas/taquitos stuffed with seasoned, shredded chicken, spinach, and cheese are crispy, but don't have the greasiness of fried versions. To shred poached chicken easily, put it into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on medium for 45 seconds. Store-bought rotisserie chicken can be substituted for the poached chicken to save time.

Time 45m

Yield 10 flautas, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 4)
16 ounces beer
2 cups water
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 jalapeno pepper, minced
3 cups Baby Spinach, chopped
5 burrito-size flour tortillas (9 inches)
6 ounces Velveeta cheese or 6 ounces melting cheese, shredded
1 tablespoon olive oil or 1 tablespoon cooking spray
salsa, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450*F.
  • Put the chicken thighs in a deep sided saute pan and cover with the beer and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the liquid and shred it. Mix together the chicken and seasonings.
  • Pour out all but 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid. Add the jalapeno and spinach and cook over low heat until for 2-3 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted.
  • Cut the tortillas in half. Spoon 1/10th of the chicken (about 1 tablespoon) along the long edge of a tortilla. Repeat with the spinach and cheese. Roll the tortilla up, starting with the straight edge. Place seam-side down on an oiled baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  • Brush the flautas with olive oil or spray with cooking spray. Bake for 10 minutes, then turn them over and bake for until 10 minutes, or until crispy. Serve with salsa.
