    Sheet-Pan Jerkish Chicken Taquitos (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    This is why we intentionally made extra chicken and black beans. Chop everything up, add some browned zucchini and cheese, roll it into tortillas and suddenly leftovers have absolutely no idea they’re leftovers. The taquitos get properly crispy right on a sheet pan, the lime yogurt takes two minutes, and any mango slaw still hanging around gets piled right alongside.Active time: 15 minutes Cook time: 20 minutes Total time: 35 minutesServes: 4IngredientsFor the taquitos10 to 12 small corn tortill
