If there’s one meal item that I know will always get the stamp of approval in my household, it’s chicken fingers. Tender white meat, crispy toasted breading and a side of the thick, decadent dipping sauce – yeah, you really can’t go wrong.

However, there is one ingredient that my chicken fingers have been missing all along. This secret ingredient is the perfect accouterment to the chicken finger’s crunchy coating, from its addicting flavor to it’s impeccably crisp texture.

If you haven’t guessed it yet, I’ll give you a hint – you probably have a bag of these, whether it be classic nacho cheese, finger-lickin’ cool ranch or spicy sweet chili, sitting in your cupboard as we speak. That’s right folks, Doritos!

With this brilliant addition to his traditional chicken nugget recipe, this pretty standard meal is kicked up about ten notches in my book!

If you think you’ll give this recipe a shot in your kitchen, be sure to SHARE the love and pass it on!
