This may be a good recipe, however, flautas are made with flour tortillas. Taquitos are made with corn tortillas. Just so everyone is clear, these are not "authentic". Still good though.

These were great! My family loved them. I did, however, use flour tortillas, as suggested by others, and I needed more oil than what was called for. Otherwise, I kept everything else the same. I will make these again, for sure!

I made this as taquitos and flautas. I prefer them with flour tortillas. I took them to a party and got rave reviews. I added bell pepper, onions and hot sauce. Thanks for a good recipe!

Whether it be taquito, flauta, taco or burrito, I do know what these things are...Delicious! I ended up using flour tortillas that did go a little doughy on me when they were fried, but the mixture inside definitely makes up for it. The cumin was omitted as neither my boyfriend or I am fond of it, but they still tasted just as great. These are best served with homemade salsa and guacamole, and I accompanied them with a black bean and rice mixture.

Loved it - great for those of us on a gluten-free diet.

My husband and I really liked these. I didn't make nearly as many as called for and used more filling for a heartier flauta. I also used flour tortillias instead of corn. We really enjoyed these dipped in a little sour cream! Will definitely make again.

This was easier to make than taquitos, although very similar when cooked. I will probably try this again with flour tortillas. Very flavorful, but I agree with some of the other reviews, a bit dry. My hubby liked them. Also, my daughter is a vegetarian, and I made her some with veggie "chicken strips". She loved it!

I liked these. Since the portions were so large (because of the amount of filling it made) they were more like chimichangas....which is what I wanted them to be. They turned out very nice and crispy. I served with sour cream, guac. and some lettuce. Thanks for the post.

I made these for my dad and brothers a while ago, but simply forgot to review them. They were eaten, but nobody was too keen on them.

Absolutely wonderful! Quite a lot of work, but well worth the effort. I even froze half the batch for later. Wonderful with fresh guacamole!

These were wonderful, just what we were looking for, the only change I made was to use my husband's homemade salsa instead of the picante sauce. Served with spanish rice and extra condiments, guacamole, sour cream and more salsa. GREAT

Had a very good flavor, and even my picky kids loved them! However to be honest i do have a problem with this recipe. Everyone knows that if you use a corn tortilla it is a taquito, and if you use a flower tortilla it is a Flauta. :)

Very good flauta recipe. Much easier than my normal recipe. I serve these with chipotle sauce (sour cream, mayo and chipotle in adobo) and jalapeno jelly. Yummy!

This is good with ground turkey, too, as well as with leftover pulled turkey breast from Thanksgiving. Serve with sour cream.

I made these for dinner and my children loved them. I make alot of mexican foods but never tried flautas. My husband also really enjoyed them. What i did was cut, season ,and fried the chicken in butter. I than shredded the chicken and added Herdez green salsa and the cumin. I did the rest as said but used cheddar cheese cuz its all i had. I served with sour cream. WE REALLY ENJOYED EVERY BITE!!!!!!!!

My boyfriend loved these almost as much as i did. He also had to help me roll them... i get a little clumsy! I added a little extra cheese and served them with 1 part sour cream mixed with 1 part ortega taco sauce. They were great.

This was a good idea. I mixed refried beans with the chicken, cheese and picante sauce to make the filling heartier for my husband's taste. I also used a cookie sheet to bake the flautas on and they did come out nice and crispy.

Instead of frying the tortillas, I microwaved them first. A Mexican friend of mine told me to do that. Other than that, I made no changes. Very good! Even the kids enjoyed.
