Ingredients
  

  • 6 slices mozzarella cheese
  • 1.5 cups cooked shredded chicken breast
  • 2 tablespoons sugar -free BBQ sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons red onion, finely minced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with a non-stick silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, sugar-free BBQ sauce, chopped cilantro, and minced red onion until the protein is uniformly coated.
  • Place the mozzarella slices on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring at least one inch of space between each slice to allow for expansion.
  • Bake for 5 to 7 minutes or until the edges of the cheese slices are golden brown and the centers are bubbling.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cheese to cool for approximately 60 seconds until it is firm enough to handle but still pliable.
  • Distribute the chicken mixture evenly, placing approximately 2 tablespoons of filling along the edge of each cheese slice.
  • Carefully roll the cheese slices around the filling to form a cylinder and place each taquito seam-side down on a serving plate.
  • Let the taquitos rest for 3 minutes to allow the cheese shells to fully crisp before serving.
