Air Fryer Chickpea Tinga Flautas

Step 1

To a medium skillet, add a drizzle of oil and when warmed through. Add the onions along with a pinch of salt and cook until softened.

Step 2

Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant then add in the chipotle peppers, oregano, and cumin and continue sauteing again for 2 minutes.

Step 3

Pour in the tomatoes, water, vegetable bouillon and chickpeas. Stir to combine and allow to simmer for 10 minutes. With a potato masher or the back of a cooking spoon, lightly mash some of the chickpeas.

Step 4

In a separate pan, warm up your tortillas for 30 seconds on each side to make them more pliable and easy to roll.

Step 5

Spray or brush your tortillas with a little oil on one side and add the mashed chickpea filling down the center of the tortilla then roll it up tightly. Carefully rest the taquitos seam side down in your air fryer basket and repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Step 6

Brush or spray the taquitos with oil and then place in the air fryer at 380F for 8-10 minutes, flipping half way through and spraying or brushing with oil again to ensure they are golden and crispy. Serve with your favorite toppings and sauces.
