Ingredients

  1. 1 (16-oz.) can refried beans
  2. 1/2 c. shredded pepper Jack (about 2 oz.)
  3. 2 tsp. chili powder
  4. 1 tsp. ground cumin
  5. 12 small corn or flour tortillas
  6. 1 c. shredded cheddar (about 4 oz.)
  7. Neutral oil, for frying
  8. 1 (4-oz.) can green chiles, drained
  9. 1/2 c. sour cream
  10. 1/4 c. chopped fresh cilantro
  11. 1 clove garlic, minced
  12. 1 tbsp. fresh lime juice
  13. Kosher salt
  14. Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Taquitos

    In a large bowl, combine beans, pepper Jack, chili powder, and cumin.
  2. Place tortillas on a heatproof plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave until warm, about 15 seconds.
  3. Place about 2 tablespoons bean mixture in center of tortilla. Top with cheddar and tightly roll up.
  4. Into a large, high-sided skillet, pour oil to a depth of about 1/2". Heat over medium heat until oil is shimmering (an instant-read thermometer should register about 350°).
  5. Working in batches, fry rolled tortillas seam side down until golden, 2 to 3 minutes (flour tortillas may take 4 to 5 minutes). Flip and fry second side until golden, 1 to 2 minutes more. Using tongs, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining tortillas, adjusting heat as needed.

  6. Green Chile Sour Cream Sauce

    In a medium bowl, combine green chiles, sour cream, cilantro, garlic, and lime juice; season with salt and pepper.
  7. Serve taquitos warm with dipping sauce alongside.
  8. Make ahead: Sour cream sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Store in an airtight container and refrigerate.
