    I've made this recipe and it was good. I made my chicken strips pretty thin so that they would remain moist and baked them for a shorter time.

    That sounds so tasty. It looks even better, if that's possible.
    Now I know what to do with the remains of the bag of Doritos that's been sitting in the kitchen. Mm!

    This is me. Might also try this with Cheetos or Fritos.

    Hmmm, the original post makes me think, what else is good?

    Not a fan of doritos, but I like pork. Why not...

    grind up pork rinds, season, and use in lieu of doritos. Excellent x2.

    Mmmmm...pork rinds! Barbeque? Chilli lime? Hot and spicy? Got it covered! But I have to say I DO love me some Doritos!
  • That sounds good ! I just joined the site and heard about all the great recipes being posted on here, cant wait to try some of them out.:bigsmile:

    This sounds yummy. Will definitely try but I think I will use 1/4 cup of low fat buttermilk instead of egg - I think I will also try crushed up flaming hot cheetos. Thanks for the post and thanks for all the suggestions. Can't wait to try them all......even the frost flakes.

    Sometimes I find that my food gets boring. So sometimes I like to crust chicken with doritos. No big deal.
    Now, if you're anything like me, and love doritos, you'll love this chicken. I know they obviously aren't the healthiest chip out there, but if you don't let yourself ever have the things you love, you'll just be miserable!
    Keep in mind, this recipe is for a single serving. I'm usually just cooking for myself, but it can easily be scaled up!

    Ingredients:
    1 boneless skinless chicken breast, pounded thin, 3 oz.
    0.85 ounces of nacho cheese doritos, about 8-10 chips, crushed up.
    1 egg
    salt and pepper

    Directions:
    1. Preheat oven to 375 F
    2. Take chicken breast, and season generously with salt and pepper.
    3. Coat breast in beaten egg. (NOTE: You won't nearly use all the egg. You can substitute this with about a tbsp of egg beaters to avoid wasting it)
    4. Place chicken in crushed up doritos, pressing down to insure as many as possible stick to both sides.
    5. On a foil lined baking sheet, sprayed with cooking spray, place the chicken. Spray the top with a bit more spray!
    6. Place in oven. Cook for 10 minutes, then flip and continue cooking for another 10-15 minutes on the other side, until internal temp reaches 185 F.
    7. Enjoy!

    Now, as you can see in the picture, I had this with some rice and carrots. But you could just as easily slap it between some bread with a little bit of mayo, lettuce, etc. Sounds better than any fast food I've ever had!
    This chicken was the perfect treat for my doritos obsession, and it was wonderfully crunchy! The flavor mellowed out a bit in the oven, so if you're worried about super orange glow nacho flavor, don't be! It's subtle and fabulous. Hope you try it!
