๐Ÿง€ The combination of cream cheese, bacon, and mozzarella inside tender chicken with a crispy Doritos crust makes it an unforgettable, flavorful dinner option.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

– 1 cup softened cream cheese

– 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled

– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

– 2 cups crushed cheese-flavored tortilla chips, crushed into fine crumbs

– 1 cup all-purpose flour

– 2 large eggs, beaten

– 1 tablespoon milk

– Salt and pepper to taste

– 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

1-First, preheat the oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC) and gather all your ingredients to get started smoothly.

2-Next, use a sharp knife to cut a pocket into each of the 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts without cutting all the way through, being careful to keep the edges intact.

3-In a bowl, combine 1 cup softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup cooked bacon crumbled, 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, salt, and pepper to create the stuffing mixture.

4-Stuff each chicken breast pocket with the mixture and secure the edges with toothpicks if needed to prevent the filling from spilling out.

5-Prepare three shallow dishes: one with 1 cup all-purpose flour, one with 2 large eggs beaten and mixed with 1 tablespoon milk, and one with 2 cups crushed cheese-flavored tortilla chips.

6-Bread each stuffed chicken breast by first rolling it in the flour, then dipping it into the egg mixture, and finally coating it with the crushed chips, pressing firmly for good coverage.

7-In an oven-safe skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat, then sear the chicken breasts for 2 to 3 minutes per side until they turn golden brown.

8-Finally, transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the filling is hot and bubbly. Let it rest for 5 minutes, remove toothpicks, and serve warm.
