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 CHICKEN (GLUTEN FREE)



Potato Chip Chicken (Gluten Free) image

I love this chicken, it is so moist inside and the chips make the outside crunchy. My favourite way to make this chicken is with ruffled chips, but you can make it with your favourite flavour!

Provided by GlutenFreeGirl

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 30m

Yield 4 pieces of chicken, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup coarsely crushed potato chips (I use ruffled chips)
1 tablespoon parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons mayonnaise

Steps:

  • In large plastic bag, combine crushed potato chips, parsley, salt, paprika, and onion powder.
  • Brush chicken with mayonnaise; add chicken to crumb mixture and coat, shaking off extra.
  • Place in greased 9x12 dish. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 to 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for making potato chips because they are low in moisture and have a high starch content. This makes them crispy and flavorful.
  • Slice the potatoes thinly: The thinner the potato slices, the crispier the chips will be. Aim for slices that are about 1/8 inch thick.
  • Season the potatoes well: Before frying the potatoes, season them with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. This will help them to flavor evenly.
  • Fry the potatoes in hot oil: The oil should be heated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit before adding the potatoes. This will help them to cook quickly and evenly.
  • Don't crowd the pan: When frying the potatoes, don't crowd the pan. This will cause them to steam instead of fry, resulting in soggy chips.
  • Drain the potatoes on paper towels: After frying the potatoes, drain them on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: Potato chips are best served immediately after they are made. This will ensure that they are crispy and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Potato chips are a delicious and versatile snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make at home with just a few simple ingredients. By following these tips, you can make perfect potato chips every time.
