Dorito Crusted Chicken Nuggets

Dorito Crusted Chicken Strips: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

My girls prefer breaded chicken over any other method of preparing. Even if I bread the whole chicken breast, they seem to like it better. So when I saw a recipe that used crushed Doritios to bread the chicken I knew my girls would love it. I also had a feeling my husband and I would like it too.

The best thing about breading the chicken in Doritos is the many flavors of Doritios to choose from. Just pick your favorite Dorito flavor and you will have flavorful and delicious chicken nuggets.

Dorito Crusted Chicken Nuggets

Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces tortilla chips
  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 egg, beaten

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400º F. Line a baking sheet with a silpat or parchment paper.
  2. In a food processor, crush the Doritos and then transfer to a shallow dish.
  3. In another shallow dish add the flour.
  4. In another shallow dish add the egg and lightly beat.
  5. Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces.
  6. Coat the chicken pieces with flour and shake off the excess. Then dip into the beaten egg and let the excess drip off. Place into the crushed Doritos and coat both sides well, pressing down to make sure they stick. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes or until the chicken is completely cooked.
Enjoy!!!
