Don't these Cheetos Chicken Fingers look delicious?

Instructions for making this Cheeto Chicken Dinner Recipe

Cut your chicken breast up into strips.

Take your Cheetos and crush them into crumbs. You can use a food processor if you prefer, just make sure not to grind them too finely. You do want some nice chunks on the finished product!

Dip your chicken strips into the beaten egg.

Then roll the chicken strips in the bowl of Cheeto crumbs and lay them flat on a baking sheet.

Make sure that the entire chicken tenders are evenly coated. 

Pre-heat oven to 350. Place Cheetos Chicken Fingers in the oven and cook for 30 minutes or until chicken temperature reaches 165 degrees.

Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
