Things you'll need
  1. Square off the top & bottom of the chicken breast to the length of the chicken fry you want

  2. Cut the long way in ¼" slices until all your chicken is cut

  3. Now cut these slices down the middle to create your perfect chicken fry shape

  4. Wet mix is 1 Egg & ½ Cup Milk whisked together

  5. Dry mix is 1 Cup ground up Cheetos Puffs, ¼ Cup Flour & 1 Powdered Cheese Packet

  6. Coat the chicken with just flour, then toss into wet mix and finish it off in the dry mixture

  7. Deep fry at 350°F for 3-4 minutes or until fully cooked

  8. If you want a dangerously cheesy taste, toss the chicken into a bowl of ground up Cheetos Puffs after coming out of the fryer for a double coat of cheese
