CHEEZ IT CRUSTED CHICKEN RECIPES
CHEEZ-ITS CHICKEN | SOUTHERN LIVING
This recipe is a real winner for busy families. It combines reliable chicken fingers and the beloved cheese snack crackers that many of us keep on hand. This recipe really is quick and easy, and popular with kids of all ages, even those who can be a bit picky at times. It’s also delicious. This retro recipe has been around for years and it’s time to bring this slightly updated version back into rotation.All you have to do is cut chicken breasts into strips, dip them in sour cream, roll them in crushed snack crackers, drizzle with butter, and pop into the oven for only 15 minutes. The zippy cheddar crackers and simply spices add just enough flavor. The sour cream keeps the chicken amazingly juicy and tender, and holds the crumbs in place. A little melted butter turns the cracker crumbs into a lightly crisped crust that isn’t too bready.You can crush the crackers in a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag, squeeze out the air, close tightly, and bang away with a rolling pin or the bottom of a small skillet.Young eaters might appreciate a simple dip of ketchup, barbecue sauce, ranch, or honey mustard, although the chicken is so tasty that it doesn’t need it. Grownups will love this warm chicken atop a nice salad.These might be the tastiest homemade chicken fingers you’ve ever made. This recipe is a keeper.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Mist a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Cut the chicken into 1-inch-wide strips.
- Stir together the sour cream, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a medium-size bowl. Add the chicken and toss well to coat.
- Pour the cracker crumbs onto a plate. Working with one piece at a time, coat the chicken in crumbs, pressing to help them adhere.
- Arrange in a single layer on the baking sheet, leaving a little room between the pieces. Drizzle the butter over the chicken.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a strip registers 165 degrees.
- Let stand for at least 5 minutes before serving warm. These taste best when served warm rather than piping hot.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees and grease an oven safe dish that the chicken will fit inches.
- Rinse your chicken breasts and pat them dry with paper towel.Very important that you dry the chicken breasts before preparing them, if the chicken isn't dry the seasonings will not stick and neither will the sour cream mixture. Season on both sides with salt and pepper, to taste. In a shallow dish, combine the sour cream and buttermilk. Arrange the crushed Cheez-Its in a second shallow dish. Dip each chicken breast into the sour cream mixture, then into the Cheez-Its so that they adhere and form a crust. Place the chicken in your prepared baking dish, leaving about 1 inch between the breasts.
- Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes.

CHEEZ-IT CHICKEN TENDERS - AVERIE COOKS
Oct 28, 2021 · Tips for Making Cheez-It Crusted Chicken Tenders. Be sure not to overbake the chicken because tenders cook up so fast in a hot 400F oven. I recommend using classic (full fat) Cheez-Its rather than the reduced fat version so that the chicken has a better chance of staying juicier and moister.
