Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°. Prepare a cookie sheet by lining with parchment paper or tin foil, or you can spray the pan with cooking spray.
- Combine drained and flaked chicken, cream cheese, salsa, cheese, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder into a mixing bowl. Stir together until well combined.
- Spread 3 tablespoons (a large spoonful) of chicken mixture onto a tortilla. Roll up tightly and place seam side down on a cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas. *If you use smaller tortillas then you won't need the full 3 tablespoons of filling, so adjust accordingly.
- Spray the tops of the flautas with cooking spray. Don't soak them but you want them to have a decent coating of cooking spray so they will get really brown and crispy. I also like to sprinkle some kosher salt on top of the sprayed flautas, but this is totally optional.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until they reach desired crispness that you want. Let cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving so the filling can cool and come together. Serve with dips of your choice (sour cream, salsa, guacamole).

CHICKEN FLAUTAS WITH ORANGE AND RED ONION SALSA
Number Of Ingredients 20
Steps:
- 1. TO MAKE THE F1AUTAS: In a medium saucepan, combine the chicken breasts, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, and peppercorns. Add enough cold water to cover the chicken by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 20 minutes (the chicken will not be completely cooked). Remove from the heat, cover tightly, and let the chicken cool in the liquid, about 1 hour. 2. Remove the chicken from the bones, shred the chicken, and discard the skin and bones. Set the chicken aside. 3. Heat a dry medium skillet over medium heat. Add a tortilla to the skillet and heat, turning once, until pliable, about 30 seconds. Place on a work surface. Add one eighth of the shredded chicken and roll up the tortilla into a narrow "flute," securing the tortilla closed with a wooden toothpick. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken. (The flautas can be prepared up to 1 hour ahead of frying, covered, and set aside.) 4. MEANWHILE, TO MAKE THE SALSA: Using a large knife, cut the top and bottom from each orange down to the flesh. Put the oranges on end and cut off the peel down to the flesh. Cut between the membranes to release the segments. In a medium bowl, combine the orange segments, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeno, garlic, and salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, not more than 2 hours. 5. Just before frying the flautas, thin the sour cream with the milk. 6. Preheat the oven to 200°F. Put a large wire cake rack over a jelly roll pan. In 2 batches, in a deep Dutch oven, melt shortening over high heat to a depth of 2 to 3 inches and heat it to 375°F. Deep-fry the flautas until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Using a wire-mesh skimmer, transfer to the wire rack to drain. Keep the flautas warm in the oven while frying the rest. Serve the flautas on individual plates, drizzled with the sour cream (or use a squeeze bottle to pipe streaks of sour cream over the flautas) and garnished with spoonfuls of the salsa.

I found this one online but I don't remember where. The flautas are very good but the salsa is outstanding. It goes well with all manner of dishes especially tacos, burritos, and chimichangas, etc. The times are a guess.
