At some point I sent myself an email that just said, “Recipe idea: chip and cheddar chicken strips.” Who knows where the inspiration came from, but it came and it was pretty dang tasty. It’s quite simple. Crush up some potato chips, throw in a little cheddar, dip some chicken in some butter and roll it around in the mixture. Bake. The best part is you can totally you any kind of potato chip. I went with Sour Cream and Onion, but you could really do it with any flavor. BBQ, Salt and Vinegar, one of those fancy new ones like Sriracha, or just plain old potato chips. It’s goin’ Â be tastee! And yes, I’m dipping it in butter. You didn’t think this was a health food, right?
