Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 5 oz potato chips crushed (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6-8 ounces each)

Instructions
 

  • Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Combine crushed chips, garlic powder, pepper, and parsley in a shallow bowl.
  • Dip chicken in melted butter, then in potato chip mixture.
  • Place on a foil lined greased cookie sheet. (For chicken that is crispy on the bottom, place a cooling rack inside your pan on top of the foil. The air can circulate underneath, and the chicken comes out crispier!)
  • Press any remaining chips on top of chicken, and drizzle with remaining butter.
  • Bake at 375° for 40-50 minutes or till chicken juices run clear and internal temperature is 165°.

Notes

The original recipe called for an additional 1/4 cup melted butter that you drizzle over the top of the chicken before baking. I omit that step to lower the fat a little. But you can add it if you want.
