Description
Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, these tenders are packed with flavour, easy to make and ready in less than half an hour!
Ingredients
Units
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (2.5 lbs.)
- 1 255g bag of Cool Ranch Doritos
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 4 large eggs, beaten
- 3/4 cup milk
Instructions
- 1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
- 2. Line 2 baking sheets with foil or brush very lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking. If you have a wire rack that sits in a baking sheet, that will work very well.
- 3. Slice chicken into pieces about 3-4 inches long by 2-3 inches wide. Place in bowl and set aside. Depending on the size of the chicken breast, you will get 5-7 pieces in each one.
- 4. Open top of Doritos bag, then hold the top closed and squeeze to crunch up the Doritos. The pieces will resemble crunched up corn flakes.
- 5. In separate bowls, place milk, flour, and beaten eggs. Line up bowls in the following order: milk, flour, eggs, Doritos, cookie tray, wet cloth.
- (Before assembling, have a wet cloth handy as this can get a little messy!)
- 6. Dip each piece of chicken, one at a time, into the milk, then flour, next eggs and finally crunched up Doritos. Place on baking sheet.
- 7. Bake in 400F for 15-20 minutes, turning over once halfway through. Test to ensure that chicken is no longer pink inside.
- 8. Serve with BBQ sauce or ranch dipping sauce and garnish with sliced green onions.
Notes
Storage: Store cooled Dorito tenders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days.
Freezing: You can freeze cooked tender by placing cooled tenders in a large freezer bag or airtight container. Freeze for up to three months. I like to reheat them in the air fryer at 350°F for a few minutes.
