Preheat oven to 425F. Line a large rimmed baking pan with parchment paper. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to saute until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste. Stir in the diced tomatoes and cook over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, until liquid has been reduced by half. Stir in the chili powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, and salt. Add the shredded chicken, scallions, and cilantro. Mix well. Remove from heat to cool. Add 2 tablespoons of chipotle chicken mixture in each warmed tortilla and 1-2 tablespoons of shredded cheese in the center. Roll up tightly. Place seam side down on the prepared parchment paper. Drizzle the taquitos with the remaining olive oil. Bake for 12 minutes, then flip to bake for 10-15 minutes, until crispy. Enjoy warm with a drizzle of sour cream and ranch on the side!
