Ingredients
  

  • 1 bag barbecue potato chips family size
  • 4 large chicken breasts trimmed of fat and cut into strips
  • 1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 pinch smoked paprika

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Spread a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and set it aside.
  • Fold the open end of the chip bag over and press out a little of the trapped air. Scrunch the chips with your hands until they are small, uniform crushed pieces. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl whisk the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, black pepper and smoked paprika together until evenly combined.
  • Add the chicken strips to the bowl and toss until evenly coated.
  • With tongs, move the strips to the bag of crushed chips, no more than 4 or 5 strips at a time. Hold the top of the bag closed and shake to coat the chicken with chip crumbs.
  • Move the strips to the prepared pan, pressing on extra chips to cover any bare spots. Repeat until all the chicken is coated and on the pan.
  • Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, flipping the chicken halfway through, until the strips are cooked through and the thickest piece reads 165°F on a food thermometer.
  • Serve warm.
