Spicy Crunchy Chicken

This was the first time we tried this chicken out, we were wanting something different. We were not sure about how it would taste, but it ended up being a keeper! In the past we've tried something similar, instead of smashing up Doritos we smashed up Cap'n Crunch's Crunch Berries and that was delicious (we will have to do a post for that some time!)!! The best thing about this recipe is it is super fast and easy to make, just put it in the oven and walk away!

Ingredients:
- 6 halved chicken breasts
- flour
- salsa (we used a Target brand, Archer Farms; Original thick & chunky salsa)
- Doritos; Spicy Sweet Chili

*Preheat the oven to 350 degress, and spray a pan with cooking spray*

Rise and dry the chicken off. Then flatten the chicken out by pounding it, this will help let all of the flavors get into the chicken and just make the chicken flatter so you are not biting into a big thick piece of chicken.


You want to purée the salsa because the chunks wont stick to the chicken.



Smash up the Doritos


We made a little assembly line for the chicken with the flour, salsa, and chips. Take each piece of chicken and coat both sides of it in the flour, then put it in the salsa, and then the chip crumbs.


Place the chicken on the pan and spray the top of the chicken with cooking spray. Bake the chicken in the oven for one hour.

ENJOY!
