Step 1
In a large skillet, saute the onion in oil until it's tender and slightly translucent. Add the garlic, cumin, oregano, chili powder and cayenne, and cook for one minute longer, stirring to incorporate.
Step 2
Stir in the pork, cheese, cilantro, salsa and lime juice, then cook until the cheese is melted and the pork is thoroughly heated.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place 2 tablespoons of the filling in the lower third of each tortilla, then roll them up tightly and secure them with toothpicks. Place the rolled tortillas on a greased baking sheet. Editor's Tip: Warming the tortillas in a hot skillet or in the microwave for 15 to 20 seconds will make them more pliable and easy to roll.
Step 4
Bake for eight minutes, until the taquitos are golden brown and crispy. Let them cool on a wire rack, and discard the toothpicks. Serve the taquitos with salsa, guacamole or sour cream for topping or dipping, if desired.
