Chicken Flautas
- 1 Hass avocado, halved and pitted
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 limes (1 halved, 1 cut into wedges)
- Kosher salt
- 6 radishes, thinly sliced
- 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1 1/2 cups fresh salsa
- 16 corn tortillas
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh cilantro
- Scoop the avocado into a blender.
- Add the sour cream and the juice of 1/2 lime and pulse until smooth.
- Season with salt.
- Squeeze the remaining 1/2 lime over the radishes in a small bowl and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Toss the chicken with 3/4 cup salsa in a medium bowl.
- Wrap the tortillas in paper towels and microwave until soft, about 45 seconds.
- Spoon the chicken mixture down the middle of the tortillas.
- Fold in the ends and roll up like a burrito; secure with toothpicks.
- Heat 3/4 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Fry the flautas, turning as needed, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove with tongs; drain on paper towels and remove the toothpicks.
- Serve with the avocado cream, radishes, cilantro, lime wedges and the remaining 3/4 cup salsa.
