Cream Cheese and Bacon Stuffed Doritos Chicken
A deliciously indulgent dish featuring chicken breasts stuffed with a creamy mixture of cream cheese, cheddar, and bacon, then coated with crunchy Doritos for an irresistible flavor and texture.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 slices cooked bacon crumbled
- 2 cups crushed Doritos any flavor
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs beaten
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley chopped, optional for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Carefully slice a pocket into each chicken breast without cutting through completely.
- In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Spoon the cream cheese mixture into the chicken pockets. Press the edges together to seal.
- Set up a breading station with three dishes: flour, beaten eggs, and crushed Doritos. Coat each chicken breast in flour, dip in eggs, and press into Doritos for an even coating.
- Place chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
- Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve hot.
Notes
For added heat, use spicy-flavored Doritos or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the filling.
