Crispy air fryer taquitos get the VIP treatment standing tall in a cup of hot, melty queso—aka the best dinner party trick ever. Made extra crunchy thanks to my new COSORI air fryer, these are fun, dippable, and completely crave-worthy.
Heat a large pot. Cook the meat: Brown the chorizo and drain any excess grease (I use a mesh strainer for this).
Combine ingredients: Mix the cooked chorizo with the remaining ingredients in your pot.
Allow to simmer, stirring frequently to melt cheese.
Tacos:
Prepare your taco filling: Brown your ground beef. Once cooked through, add your taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 5-10 minutes.
Heat the tortillas in the microwave until soft and pliable. Place a tortilla flat on a surface and brush generously with oil. Then flip over. Add some queso, then taco filling.
Preheat the air fryer to 400. Roll the tortilla tightly into a tube-like shape. Place it seam-side down or secure it with a toothpick. Repeat until all tortillas and filling are used.
Place in your preheated air fryer at 400. Air Fry for 6-7 minutes.
Place queso and other toppings at the bottom of your cup. Lastly, add in the tacos. Enjoy
