To prepare, remove the taquitos from their packaging. They can be cooked in an oven or an air fryer for the best crispiness. For oven preparation, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and heat according to package directions until golden brown and heated through. If using an air fryer, arrange them in a single layer and cook at the recommended temperature and time, flipping halfway. Ensure they are thoroughly heated before serving.
