Description

Queso Fundido Taquitos are crispy, cheesy rolled tacos filled with a blend of melted cheese, chorizo, and roasted peppers, inspired by the classic Mexican queso fundido dip.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 lb Mexican chorizo, casing removed
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 cup roasted poblano or bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Oaxaca or mozzarella cheese
  • 10 small corn tortillas
  • Vegetable oil, for frying or brushing
  • Optional: fresh cilantro, sour cream, or salsa for serving

Instructions

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook chorizo and onion until browned and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes. Stir in roasted peppers and remove from heat.
  2. In a bowl, combine cooked chorizo mixture with cheeses. Set aside.
  3. Warm tortillas in a microwave or skillet until pliable.
  4. Spoon about 2 tbsp of filling onto each tortilla and roll tightly into taquitos. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
  5. For frying: Heat about 1/2 inch of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry taquitos in batches, turning occasionally, until golden and crispy, about 2–3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
  6. For baking: Place taquitos seam-side down on a baking sheet, brush with oil, and bake at 425°F (220°C) for 15–20 minutes or until crisp and golden.
  7. Serve hot with your choice of garnishes.

Notes

  • Use vegetarian chorizo for a meatless version.
  • Make ahead and reheat in the oven for easy entertaining.
  • Serve with guacamole or queso dip for extra indulgence.
