Ingredients
  

  • 1 bag Nacho Cheese Doritos tortilla chips (225 g)
  • 1 large skinless boneless chicken breast, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1 tbsp olive or avocado oil
  • 2 tsp Tabasco hot sauce
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. 
  • Transfer the Doritos into a large resealable bag. Close up the bag, removing as much air out of it as you can. Use a rolling pin to crush the chips to a fine powder (similar results can be achieved with a few pulses in a food processor). 
  • In a bowl, combine the cubed chicken with the oil, Tabasco, salt, and pepper and stir well to coat. 
  • Place the chicken in the bag of Dorito crumbs, seal the bag, and start shaking! Make sure the chicken pieces are completely coated before transferring them to a sheet tray lined with parchment paper. 
  • Bake in oven for 15 minutes or until crispy and cooked through. Remove chicken bites from the oven and set aside to cool. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use. They’ll keep for up to 3 days.
