Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425º F. Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the cumin, chili powder, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and fresh lime juice. Stir until chicken is well coated with the seasonings. Stir in the shredded cheese.
3. Spray tortillas with a little olive oil and heat up a tortilla in a pan. Place a heaping tablespoon of the chicken and cheese mixture in the center of the tortilla and roll it up tightly. Place the taquito, seam side down on the prepared baking sheet. Continue heating and rolling taquitos until the tortillas and filling are gone. You should have about 20 taquitos.
