Barbecue Chip Chicken

Who doesn't love reaching into a bag of chips? Our Barbecue Chip Chicken takes advantage of this novel breading idea that's sure to add irresistible crunch and tangy flavor to juicy baked chicken breasts.

Serves: 4

Cooking Time: 25 min

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup ranch salad dressing
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 (6-ounce) bag barbecue-flavored potato chips, crushed
• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (1 to 1-1/2 pounds)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
    
2. In a shallow bowl, combine dressing, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper; mix well. Place crushed potato chips in another shallow bowl. Dip chicken into dressing mixture then into crushed potato chips, coating completely; place on prepared baking sheet.
    
3. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, or until no pink remains in chicken and juices run clear.

Notes

Before dipping, you may want to cut the chicken into long strips to form chicken fingers. If you'd like, serve with additional ranch dressing for dipping.
