Ingredients

9.25 oz Doritos or one bag (any flavor you love!)
1 large egg
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the chicken into strips, about ¾-inch thick.
Crush the Doritos until you have about 1½ cups of crumbs. You can use a food processor or crush them in a sealed bag with a rolling pin.
Whisk the egg and milk together in a bowl.
Dip each chicken strip into the egg mixture, then coat it fully with the crushed Doritos. Press the chips onto the chicken to make sure they stick well.
Arrange the coated strips on a foil-lined baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray for extra crispiness.
Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
Serve immediately with ranch, sour cream, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Pro Tips for the Best Crunch:

Try spicy Doritos for an extra kick!
Use Cool Ranch Doritos for a zesty flavor twist.
Don't skip the cooking spray—it helps the coating crisp up perfectly.
Want extra crunch? Double coat the chicken by dipping it back into the egg and Dorito crumbs before baking!

Enjoy your bold, crunchy, and totally addictive Dorito chicken tenders!
