Fast easy chicken for weeknights - whole family loves. Easy to adjust for spicyness , change from Montery Jack w/Jalapeno to regular Montery Jack Cheese and skip the chiles. I Serve with fresh salsa and avacado. I make boxed yellow rice as a side. (Notes: Don't be afraid of the Doritos and works very well with frozen bagged chicken breasts) Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
1 lime (or juice) |
1 egg white |
4 garlic cloves, pressed |
2 cups nacho cheese flavor doritos, finely crushed |
4 ounces whole green chilies, canned, drained, cut into strips |
2 cups jalapeno jack cheese (i shred fresh block) |
salsa (optional) |
avocado (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400°F.
2. Rinse and pat chicken dry.
3. Flatten all chicken breasts to even thickness.
4. Crush Doritos to a very fine texture,(I use a meat tenderizer and a plasic bag), place in shallow dish.
5. Mix together egg white, garlic, and juice from the lime.
6. Dip chicken into egg mixture and then coat with Doritos.
7. Place in baking dish, cook for 20 - 25 minutes.
8. Remove from oven, place chile strips on chicken, cover with cheese.
9. Bake until cheese is melted - about 5 minutes.
10. Remove and serve - garnish with Salsa and Avacado.
