How to make Cream Cheese & Bacon Stuffed Doritos Chicken
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with olive oil.
Using a sharp knife, carefully butterfly each chicken breast, creating a pocket without cutting all the way through.
Season the inside of each chicken breast with salt and pepper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and crumbled bacon.
Stuff each chicken breast with the cream cheese mixture, then press the edges to seal.
Dip each stuffed chicken breast into the beaten eggs, then coat with crushed Doritos chips, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Tips & Tricks
Ensure the cream cheese is softened to make mixing easier.
Use a food processor to crush the Doritos chips for a finer coating.
