-Stuffed Doritos Chicken
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 strips crispy bacon, crumbled
1 bag (9 oz) Nacho Cheese Doritos, crushed
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut a slit in each chicken breast to form a pocket. Stuff each pocket with shredded cheese and crumbled bacon.
Coat the Chicken: Set up a breading station with flour (seasoned with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper), beaten eggs, and crushed Doritos. Dip each stuffed chicken breast in flour, then egg, and finally coat with crushed Doritos.
Bake: Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and Doritos coating is crispy.
Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
Notes:
For extra flavor, add jalapeño slices inside the chicken for a spicy kick.
Use a mix of different cheese flavors (like Monterey Jack or mozzarella) for variation.
