Instructions
Mise en place
Put the onion in the food processor and process it.
Add the turkey and process that until the turkey is in small pieces about the size of rice.
Put the mixture in a large bowl. Add the spices and green chili and mix well.
Put the tortillas in a tortilla warmer with a moistened sheet of paper towel. Heat the warmer in the microwave for 90 seconds.
Put a tortilla on the rack of the air fryer. Keep the other tortillas covered so they won't dry out.
Put some of the filling on the tortilla. Roll it up and secure it with a tooth pick.

Continue stuffing and rolling until you run out of stuffing or tortillas.
Fit as many rolled tortillas on the rack as you can and refrigerate the rest.
Heat the taquitos in the air fryer at 380°F / 193°C for
7 minutes
or until they have started to brown.
Line a serving dish with shredded cabbage and lay the taquitos on top. Remove the toothpicks.
Pour Mexican Crema over them and dust them with paprika and cojita cheese.
Enjoy!
