I ran out of bread crumbs so one night in a pinch I concocted this and it was a huge hit and I have made it at least twice a month since........enjoy!!!!
Ingredients:
1 -1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast half
2 cups crushed nacho chips
1/4 cup ranch dressing
2 eggs
salsa
2 cups cheddar cheese or 2 cups colby-monterey jack cheese, finely shredded
vegetable oil
salt & pepper
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Pound the chicken breasts with a mallet until about 1/4 inch thick, season with salt & pepper, place in the center of each breast about 2 tablespoons of salsa and a small handful of cheese. Beat eggs with the ranch dressing in a bowl, roll the breast up folding the bottom and top in like a burrito and roll in egg mixture. Coat with crushed nacho chips and fry in a heavy bottom pan with enough oil to cover bottom half of roll. Brown chicken on both sides and transfer to a 8x8 square pan. top with additional salsa and cheese and bake until cooked through about 15 to 20 minutes. I serve this with corn and spanish rice.
