Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Taquitos are an easy meal to make. Enjoy all of the classic flavors from Buffalo Chicken Wings rolled up into a baked taquito.
I love slow cooker meals, I mean who doesn’t? Throw all the ingredients into the slow cooker in the morning, then that night you get to enjoy!
Sunday is the day I always use my slow cooker and with spring coming along we are moving out the soup season and onto recipes that we can enjoy outside or while watching March Madness.
These Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Taquitos are so full of flavor and the Blue Cheese Dip on side is a perfect pairing.
My kids and husband are HUGE Buffalo Wild Wings fans, and if you have followed my blog for a while you will know I am not… and not because of the flavor but because of the mess! I hate the cleanup and I am not talking about the dishes, but children! Their faces are full of the sauce and then like all kids, they use their shirts as napkins and trust me this sauce ain’t easy to get out.
So these Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Taquitos satisfies us all AND a bonus, it is easy. You can’t get much better than that!
Enjoy! XOXO San
How do you make Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Taquitos?
In a slow cooker combine chicken and 1/3 to 2/3 cup buffalo sauce, depending how saucy you like it. Add garlic powder, cream cheese, salt, and pepper to taste. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours or on high 3-4 hours.
While cooking, prepare Blue Cheese Dip by mixing all dip ingredients in a bowl. Let it sit covered in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Remove chicken from crockpot, shred using two forks, return to slow cooker and mix them into the sauce.
Preheat oven to 400 F. Spray baking sheet with cooking oil, set aside.
Add 1/4 cup of the buffalo chicken mixture onto the middle of each tortilla. Top with shredded fontina, then tightly roll up the tortilla. Place on prepared baking sheet, repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken, placing in a single layer as pictured, making sure they aren’t touching.
Optionally, to get a crispier tortilla, spray rolled taquitos with additional cooking spray.
Bake 10-12 minutes, or until tortillas are golden. Serve with Blue Cheese Dip & garnishes.
