Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Dorito's nacho chip crumbs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF (177ºC).
- Whirl chips in a food processor until they are desired consistency. (I like mine fairly fine). Spread in a thick layer on a plate.
- In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise (1/4 cup), salt (1/2 teaspoon), and Italian seasoning (1/2 teaspoon). Spread mayonnaise mixture evenly over chicken breasts.
- Dip chicken in Dorito Chip crumbs and place on a baking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
Notes
- Mix up your flavors! Doritos come in all sorts of varieties — try Spicy Sweet Chili or Cool Ranch for a fun twist.
- Add a dip: Serve with a side of ranch dressing, queso, or guacamole for dunking.
- Make it a meal: Pair this chicken with Mexican Rice, Corn Salad, or even a batch of Butter Swim Biscuits for a full comfort dinner.
- Kid hack: Turn this recipe into “Dorito Chicken Tenders” by slicing the chicken before coating — perfect for little hands!
