The use of Doritos chips makes a great breading for chicken bites. The Doritos chips are put into a food processor and blended until they are very fine crumbs. If you do not have a food processor, try and crush the chips as finely as possible. The chicken pieces are first rolled in flour, then dipped in egg and then rolled in the Doritos. These chicken bites are baked in the oven so there is no need for a deep-fryer. I like to serve these Doritos chicken bites with ranch dressing. Enjoy.
