🔥 Instructions:

1. Make the Steak Filling:

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chopped steak and onions.

Season with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt & pepper. Cook until steak is browned and tender. Set aside.

2. Roll the Taquitos:

Warm tortillas slightly (so they roll easier). Add a spoonful of steak filling to each one and roll tightly.

Secure with a toothpick if needed.

3. Fry to Perfection:

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry taquitos seam-side down until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

4. Make the Cheese Sauce:

In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute.

Slowly whisk in milk and cook until slightly thickened. Stir in cheese, garlic powder, and salt. Cook until melted and smooth.

5. Make the Pico & Guac:

For pico, combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.

For guac, mash avocados and mix in onion, lime juice, garlic, salt & pepper.

6. Assemble & Serve:

Stack those crispy taquitos high, drizzle generously with cheese sauce, spoon over pico, and serve with a side of guac and lime wedges. 🌶️🔥

😍 Pro Tip: Air fryer friendly! Spray taquitos with oil and air fry at 400°F for 8–10 minutes until crisp. Try pepper jack in the cheese sauce for a spicy kick!
