Instructions: How to Cook Chuy'S Chicken Flautas

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced onion, green chilies, Monterey Jack cheese, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
2. Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture onto each flour tortilla and roll up tightly to form a flauta. Secure with toothpicks if needed.
3. In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Carefully place the flautas seam side down in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
4. Remove the flautas from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
