## Instructions
1\. Cook the Chicken
o Place the chicken breasts, chicken bouillon, salt, onion, garlic, celery, and cilantro in a pot. Cover with water and cook over medium heat for 30 minutes or until the chicken is tender and shreds easily.
o Shred the chicken and let it cool completely before assembling the flautas.
2\. Make the Salsas
o For the salsa verde: Add onion, garlic, jalapeños, and tomatillos to a pot. Cover with water and cook on medium heat for 15 minutes. Blend with salt to taste and avocado oil for a creamy consistency.
o For the salsa roja: Add red jalapeños, Roma tomatoes, onion, and garlic to a pot. Cover with water and cook on medium heat for 15 minutes. Blend with salt to taste.
3\. Prepare the Tortillas
o Mix masa flour with water to create a runny, glue-like consistency.
o Spread the masa glue on the edge of a corn tortilla and place another tortilla on top to make a long flauta base. Add shredded chicken, roll the tortilla tightly, and seal the ends with more masa glue. Let the flautas dry for at least 10 minutes before frying.
4\. Fry the Flautas
o Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the flautas until golden and crispy, turning occasionally.
o Once fried, place them standing or diagonally to drain any excess oil.
5\. Assemble in Cups
o Fill small or regular plastic cups with runny refried beans.
o Place 2-3 flautas inside the cup, then drizzle with salsa verde, salsa roja, Mexican crema, and sprinkle with cotija cheese.
