Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 1 regular-size bag Cool Ranch Doritos
- 2 eggs
- 2 c. flour
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
- 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- As it heats, fill a food processor with Doritos. Put on the lid and pulse until you have a fine crumble. If you don't have a food processor, place them in a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag and smash until they're dust, basically. Once you have about 1 1/2 cups of crumbled Doritos, pour them into a shallow bowl.
- In a second shallow bowl, crack two eggs and beat them with a fork until thoroughly combined. In a third shallow bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper. Set all three bowls in a row, starting with flour mixture, then egg mixture, then crushed Doritos. Place them next to a baking sheet (it will all make sense soon, promise).
- Cut chicken breasts into strips. Dip each strip into the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, then the Doritos, then place them about an inch apart on a baking sheet (ideally lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup afterward).
- Bake chicken tenders for 30-35 minutes, or until the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. If you cut a chicken strip in half, the inside should be entirely white.
