Instructions:

  3. Dip each chicken breast in the egg mixture, then dredge it in the panko mixture, followed by the crushed Lay’s chips, ensuring good coverage.
  4. Place the breaded chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.

While the chicken bakes, whip up the creamy garlic dip:

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Stir in fresh dill for an extra pop of flavour (optional).

Serve the Lay’s Chip-Crusted Chicken with the creamy garlic dip and watch your dinner disappear!
