These Air fryer Taquitos are little hand-held bites, crunchy on the outside with a cheesy chicken filling and a little bit of spice from fresh jalapenos!

2 cups cooked shredded chicken or beef
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
4 ounces cream cheese
1 tablespoon diced jalapeños
1 green onion sliced, green and whites divided
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
8 corn tortillas 6 inches each
cooking spray
Directions :
Combine chicken, taco seasoning and 3 tablespoons water. Simmer 5 minutes or until water is evaporated.
Add cream cheese, jalapenos, and the whites of the green onion. Cook until melted and creamy.
Place tortillas on a plate, top with a damp paper towel and microwave 40 seconds or until warm.
Divide filling over tortillas and top with 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll tightly and secure with a toothpick.
