1. 1
   Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease rack fitted on a baking sheet with cooking spray.
2. 2
   Heat a large skillet to medium-high. Add ground chicken and saute 5-6 minutes until browned. Add chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt and pepper and saute another 30-60 seconds. Mix half the can of refried beans until incorporated.
3. 3
   Lay out tortillas on a flat workspace. Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of remaining refried beans on half of the tortilla and spread around. Next, spoon 1-2 tablespoons of the chicken/refried bean mixture in a line down the middle of the tortilla. Then top with a sprinkle of shredded cheese. Roll up the tortilla to form the taquito, then place it on the greased rack, seam-side down. Repeat with the remaining ingredients until all of your taquitos are prepared.

   Mist the tortillas with cooking spray. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tortillas are crispy.
