Sheet-pan Green Chile Chicken Taquitos. Shredded chicken tossed with a homemade mix of spices, poblano peppers, and smoky salsa verde. It all gets tucked into tortillas and baked until crispy. Then, top these sheet-pan taquitos with cheese and fresh corn and bake once more until melty. Serve with plenty of avocado (of course). This is a delicious twist on a Mexican favorite. It’s so yummy and so easy to create!
Yes, another recipe I’ve been so excited to share—double-baked, crispy, overly cheesy chicken taquitos. These are SO GOOD!
A while back, while creating the newest HBH cookbook, Quick and Cozy, I created a recipe semi-similar to today’s taquitos. Now, I can’t reveal exactly what the recipe is, but it gave me some good inspiration for these taquitos.
When the idea came to mind a few weeks ago, I knew I needed to create it as soon as possible—and definitely while the markets were still bursting with peppers and fresh summer corn.
I made these two weeks before heading to Cleveland and New York. They came out perfect the very first time. This was one of the first recipes I created after the move from our studio space into my personal home to both work and live.
Working from home while we renovate the studio has been a big adjustment in so many ways. My workflow is way out of whack, and photos have been harder for me to nail down and perfect. So, I never loved the photos I originally shot of this recipe.
Now that I’ve gotten slightly better at shooting photos in my home, I decided to remake the recipe again. And all I have to say is, wow, these are even better than I remember. They are so delicious!
Double-baking the taquitos really is the secret. Let me explain.
Here are details
Step 1: mix the chicken
For this recipe, use already-cooked, shredded chicken. I recommend using leftover grilled chicken or a store-bought rotisserie chicken. Toss the chicken with chopped roasted poblano peppers, onion, garlic powder, chili powder, and smoked paprika. Add a bit of cream cheese for some creaminess, then jarred salsa verde and fresh chopped cilantro.

Then mix, mix, mix to distribute the ingredients evenly.
Step 2: warm the tortillas
Do not skip this step. Warming the tortillas either in the microwave or on the stovetop will prevent the corn tortillas from tearing while you are working with them.
My biggest tip is to use fresh corn tortillas. If your tortillas are fresh and warm, they shouldn’t rip while rolling or while baking.
Step 3: roll and bake
Now roll the chicken up into the warm tortillas and arrange them seam-side down on a baking sheet.
Rub each rolled taquito well with olive oil, then bake until crispy.
Step 4: top with cheese + corn and bake again.
Next, top the crispy taquitos with cheese and corn. The key is to bake the taquitos a second time to melt the cheese.
Basically, we’re making taquito nachos!! When the crispy taquitos come out of the oven, they’ll have a layer of melty cheese, just like nachos. It’s so yummy!
Step 5: the toppings
I also love to top these like nachos: with lots of avocado, cilantro, yogurt, and fresh scallions.

The more yummy toppings, the better. Be sure to serve these warm, with melty cheese. They’re the best!
These are simple, but they have so many delicious flavors. Anyone who enjoys Mexican food and a little heat will love this dish!
I always make a side of cilantro rice as well. You can never go wrong with a side of rice!
