    Avocado vs. Air: Rub 1 tablespoon of olive oil onto exposed flesh of avocado to keep it from turning brown once exposed to air.

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together ½ cup sour cream, chili powder, cumin, and garlic salt. Stir in the chicken and cheese.
  3. Place the tortillas on another large baking sheet (overlapping slightly). Heat in the oven for 1 to 2 minutes or until the tortillas are soft and easy to roll. Remove from the oven and cover with a towel to keep warm.
  4. For each taquito, spoon about 1/4 cup chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up tightly and place seam side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush taquitos with the oil.
  5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the tortillas are crisp and chicken filling is hot.
  6. Meanwhile, seed and devein the Serrano pepper. Combine the cleaned pepper, the remaining ¾ cup sour cream, avocado, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a food processor or blender and pulse until the mixture is almost smooth. Refrigerate the sauce until ready to serve.
