Don Miguel Flautas Air Fryer Recipe
Don Miguel flautas have a crispy tortilla shell with a savory filling of chicken or beef. The combination offers a satisfying crunch with tender, flavorful meat inside, perfect for a quick snack or appetizer.
Equipment
- Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 1 pack Don Miguel frozen flautas
- Cooking spray (optional)
- Dips (salsa, guacamole, sour cream)
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C): Preheating ensures the flautas cook evenly and achieve a crispy exterior. It should take around 3-5 minutes.
- Arrange the frozen Don Miguel flautas in the air fryer basket: Place them in a single layer, leaving some space between each flauta to allow air to circulate. If you want extra crunch, lightly spray them with cooking oil.
- Cook the flautas for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through: Flipping ensures both sides get evenly crispy. Keep an eye on them, as cooking times may vary depending on your air fryer.
- Check for golden-brown crispiness before serving: If they need more crisping, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Once done, remove and allow them to cool slightly.
- Serve hot with your favorite dips: Pair the flautas with salsa, guacamole, or sour cream for an added burst of flavor.
