HOOSIER CHICKEN WITH POTATO CHIP CRUST



Hoosier Chicken with Potato Chip Crust image

A Hoosier favorite

Provided by Penny Hall

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons pure chile powder
1 teaspoon five-spice powder
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
kosher salt
2 1/2 pounds thin chicken cutlets
one 5 1/2-ounce bag plain, salted potato chips, finely crushed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • 1. 1. Preheat the oven to 225°. In a medium bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the chile powder, five-spice powder, lemon zest, pepper and a generous pinch of salt. Add the chicken and turn to coat. 2. Spread the potato chips on a sheet of wax paper. Coat the chicken with the crumbs, pressing to help them adhere. 3. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet. When the foam subsides, add one-third of the chicken cutlets and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you cook the remaining 2 batches of chicken. This recipe for crispy chicken spiked with Chinese five-spice powder gets its title from the nickname for Indiana natives. It's perfect for picnics because it's good both hot and at room temperature. For a more refined dish, thinly slice the chicken and serve it over a green salad.

POTATO CHIP CHICKEN



Potato Chip Chicken image

My mom used to make this all the time when I was a kid. She'd save the crumbs left at the end of every bag of Lays potato chips until she had enough to make this. This is such a fun way to eat chicken! The quantities here are approximate, to give you an idea.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 cups crushed potato chips (Lays classic)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (the only time I use it out of the green can)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Mix the potato chips, cheese, and garlic powder in a large ziploc bag.
  • Melt the butter or margarine in a shallow dish.
  • You can cut the chicken breasts into strips if you want to do this as chicken fingers.
  • Moisten the chicken pieces in the butter or margarine, then seal them in the ziploc bag, and shake to coat.
  • Lay the chicken out on a baking sheet (I always cover the sheet with foil for easy cleanup). If you want to, you can cover the chicken with the leftover coating.
  • Bake 40 minutes for whole breasts, 30 minutes for strips.

POTATO CHIP CRUSTED CHICKEN



Potato Chip Crusted Chicken image

A heart healthier, yet flavorful and scrumptious version by chef and author Devin Alexander. Initially, I was skeptical this could taste good being that a) it's coated with Baked Ruffles, and b) it's baked. But one bite of these, and I had a whole paradigm shift about how tasty healthy cooking can be. Hopefully you'll find that this is a keeper just as I have.
