Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (boneless, skinless) chicken breasts
- 5 cups (crushed) barbecue potato chips
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 as needed for greasing the baking sheet oil or non-stick spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with oil or non-stick spray.
Place barbecue potato chips in a resealable plastic bag and crush them into small crumbs using a rolling pin. Pour the crumbs into a shallow dish.
In another shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and black pepper.
In a third shallow dish, whisk together eggs and milk until well combined.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Coat each chicken breast first in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Next, dip the floured chicken breast into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
Finally, press the chicken breast into the crushed barbecue potato chips, pressing firmly to adhere the coating. Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
Repeat the process for the remaining chicken breasts.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C) and the coating is crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your flavorful Barbecue Chip Chicken with your favorite dipping sauce or side dishes!
