How to Make Cheetos Chicken
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup crushed crunchy Cheetos (reserve some for garnish), 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs with 2 tablespoons of milk.
- Cut 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces.
- Dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture, then dredge in the Cheetos mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Place the coated chicken pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the Cheetos coating is golden brown and crispy.
- Garnish with reserved crushed Cheetos and serve immediately.
