Shred chicken with two forks.
Stir shredded chicken with cheeses, hot sauce, and chiles.
Making one flour tortilla at a time, add a few tablespoons chicken mixture to the center of the tortilla. Roll the tortilla up tightly. Repeat.
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Add oil to a large skillet over medium heat. When oil is hot, add about four taquitos into the pan with the seam side down so the taquitos seal.
Cook taquitos for 2-3 minutes per side, flipping once.
When cooked, transfer taquitos to the oven while working on the other taquitos.
When all the taquitos are cooked, serve with salsa, if desired.
