Chicken visits Mexico

Crisp Taco Chicken
Made: May 4, 2012

Ingredients
- 2 cups finely crushed tortilla chips
- 1 envelope taco seasoning mix
- 24 small chicken drumettes
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing

Directions
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Grease a 13x9in baking dish
- Combine the crushed tortilla chips and the taco seasoning mix in a shallow bowl
- Dip the chicken into the salad dressing
- Then coat the chicken in the tortilla chip mixture
- Arrange in the prepared baking dish
- Bake for 30 minutes
- Turn the chicken
- Bake until cooked through; about 10 minutes more

I didn't really follow the measurements for this recipe. I crushed up a lot of tortilla chips (but not too finely) and added enough taco seasoning until it looked well mixed and not overpowering. I didn't use drumettes (even though I love dark meat) but I did have one thigh broken apart for Mom. I used breast tenderloins for the other pieces. I had to crush tortilla chips x2 and added in about the same amount of taco seasoning with plenty left over for more.

We also made our own "lettuce wrap tacos" with sour cream, cherry tomatoes, cheese on romaine hearts. The combination worked well together :)
