I was looking for a way to amp up the flavor of regular chicken strips so I crushed up some leftover corn chips to create a crispy, flavorful coating. -Cynthia Gerken, Naples, Florida

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup finely crushed corn chips
1/4 cup panko (Japanese) bread crumbs
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup finely shredded Mexican cheese blend
5 teaspoons taco seasoning
Dash cayenne pepper
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 pound chicken tenderloins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°. In a shallow bowl mix the first six ingredients. Place butter in a separate shallow bowl. Dip chicken in butter, then roll in crumb mixture to coat; press to adhere. Place chicken on a foil-lined 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the chicken reads 165°, about 15 minutes, turning halfway through the cooking time.
