Air Fryer Pulled Pork Taquitos

Tbsp jalapeno (drained)

salsa

oregano

¼ tsp kosher salt

oz shredded Mexican cheese blend

~7 oz pulled pork (shredded well)

yellow corn tortillas

(such

Heat the air fryer to 400°F.

Heat a medium, nonstick skillet on medium heat. Add a tortilla, spritz both sides with cooking spray, and heat until softened on both sides. Transfer to a dish and cover with a lightly moistened paper towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

In a bowl, combine the jalapeno, salsa, seasonings, pork, and cheese.

Take a ~2 tablespoons filling and pack down the middle of a tortilla. Take one side of the tortilla and roll over the filling, using your fingers to get a tight roll, then roll up the rest of the tortilla around the filling creating the ~¾-inch diameter taquito.

Put taquitos in the basket of the air fryer in a single layer (this will require cooking in 2-3 batches depending on the size of your air fryer basket). Cook 5-6 minutes until tortillas are crispy and golden.

Serve with condiments of choice, such as sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

The air fryer cooks these taquitos just right—crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. When placing taquitos in an airfryer, it helps to position them seam side down so that they hold their shape and stay closed as they cook. Check out more of our favorite vegan air-fryer recipes!

Corn tortillas need to be heated in a skillet or microwave to soften them before rolling the taquitos.

Flour tortillas do not need to be heated.

Tortillas

Sauté the onion in a medium-sized saute pan with garlic and jalapeno.

You do not need oil.

The vegetables sweat and produce moisture.

You can always splash with vegetable broth, but don&#39;t waste the fat and calories on oil.

When the onions begin to be translucent, add the lentils and 3 cups of vegetable broth, 1 can of tomatoes, and the seasoning packages, stir, and bring to a boil.

Once boiling, turn the heat down to low and cook, covered for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, remove the top of the saute pan, and stir the contents.

Add the next can of tomatoes.

Continue to cook on low, stirring often.

Use the remaining vegetable broth if the mixture appears dry.

The goal is for it to have a thick consistency.

Allow cooling completely before rolling taquitos.

Lentil Taco Meat (or choose one of the other filling options)

Place each tortilla (corn or flour on a flat surface.

Add a small amount of taco filling on one side of the tortilla (about 4 Tablespoons) and tightly roll each tortilla.

Brush each taquito with lime juice and sprinkle with chili powder.

Choose your cooking method: air-frying or baking.

Rolling and cooking the taquitos

Set as many taquitos (fold down) in the base of the air-fryer.

Cook at 400 degrees for 7-10 minutes until crispy.

Remove from the air-fryer and cover to keep warm while the other taquitos cook.

Air Frying

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees

Place a silicone baking mat or parchment paper on a baking sheet.

Lay each taquito fold it down on the baking sheet.

Cook for 20 minutes until crispy.

These were so good!  I made them exactly as written.  My corn tortillas did break after I rolled them, so I obviously didn't wet them enough, but I'm going to try again.  They still cooked up crispy in the oven, just not pretty.  They do crisp up even more when left to rest for about 4-5 minutes before eating.  Served with cashew sour cream and salsa Verde.  Making them again tomorrow as I have filling left and I want to get my roll down.  Thanks!
