Hot Cheetos Chicken Breast Strips

Take your chicken to the next level with this easy 4 ingredient Cheetos Chicken meal prep recipe! If you’re not a fan of Cheetos or want a “healthier” option, don’t worry…this recipe works with almost EVERY chip!

• 1/2 Cup Fat Free/Reduced Fat Ranch Dressing
• 1/4 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

2. Mix together your Ranch & Parmesan
3. Cut up your Chicken Breast into strips or nuggets
4. Take out a baking pan plus rack (a rack will prevent your strips or nuggets from getting soggy on the bottom)
