Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil, and lightly spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
Place the potato chips in a large resealable plastic bag and crush them into small crumbs using a rolling pin. Transfer the crumbs to a shallow bowl or plate.
In another shallow bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In a third shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Working one piece at a time, dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated.
Dip the floured chicken into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
Finally, press the chicken into the crushed potato chips, coating it thoroughly on all sides. Use your hands to press the crumbs into the chicken to ensure they adhere.
Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
Lightly spray the tops of the chicken with nonstick cooking spray to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (74Β°C).
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy and delicious Potato Chip Chicken!
