EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Looking for a little spicier version of Taco Chicken? Use spicy nacho cheese chips and medium taco sauce for the coating.

Using a nonstick skillet will work best for cooking this coated chicken. If you don’t have a nonstick skillet, you may need to add about 1 tablespoon more oil halfway through cooking.

Serve this crispy chicken alongside Spanish rice, warm flour tortillas or corn muffins and sliced avocados.

We used doritos and didn't add the taco sauce mix and used flour and it tasted awesome! MY husband and 1 year old LOVED IT! And it was quick and easy which is also good for our house.

Recipe was easy & fast. Husband was skeptical when I told him what I was cooking b/c he thought it would be to salty with the Doritos, but he loved it. Next time I might use the spicy Doritos instead of the regular one.

my family loved this - I used regular Doritos, but it would be better with the hot or spicey variety.
