Crunchy Doritos-Crusted Chicken

This Doritos Chicken brings a fun and flavorful twist to your traditional baked chicken dinner. The Doritos crust adds a satisfying crunch with a burst of cheesy and savory flavor that perfectly complements the tender, juicy chicken underneath.

  1. Ingredients:
    • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    • 2 cups Doritos chips, crushed (any flavor, but classic nacho cheese works well)
    • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
    • 2 large eggs, beaten
    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for greasing)
    • 1/2 cup ranch dressing (optional, for dipping)
    Directions:
    1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
    2. In a shallow dish, combine the crushed Doritos with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
    3. In another shallow dish, place the flour. In a third shallow dish, beat the eggs.
    4. Dredge each chicken breast first in the flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the Doritos mixture, pressing gently to ensure a full coating.
    5. Arrange the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
    6. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy.
    7. Serve with ranch dressing for dipping, if desired.
