Cheez-it Chicken

I thought this was wonderful. If I do it again I would coat with more Cheez-its. I found this to be an easy fix meal, and you should try it.

Cheez-hack chicken

Cheez-it chicken is so disgusting! I love chicken but this is horrible! Dont waste your time making it. Try using some of the things Nunge08 uses. Like cheese doritos are way better than cheez-it make u puke chicken.

baked chicken

Ive been using leftover chips,crackers and croutons as bread crumbs for chicken for a few years now.They can be baked in oven and gets just as crispy without the fat.Spray pan with Pam or a little evo.
