Hehe... that's just the brand - 'Bluebird' chips use a penguin as their mascot.

We stopped in Pittsburgh on our last road trip. The Kmart there had steak flavored chips, ketchup flavored chips and A1 steaksauce chips. My sister brought back some ketchup flavored ones from her trip to India. They tasted alot like fries with ketchup with the wetness of sauce.

I had laksa flavoured twisties in Bali. Tried a few then gave the rest to a local. He was so happy!

I dip chicken pieces in sour cream and then crushed Sour cream and onion flavored potato chips then put melted butter over the top ( not a lot of butter just about a tsp on each.

These are greast for cut up boneless chicken to for an appetiser or a party.
also have done them with cheez it crackers for a chessey flavor works great to.

Apologies to anyone who is offended, but being an Aussie its all in grams and kilograms...and celcius
Ok here we go. All you need are the following ingredient:

500g chicken breast (you can do whatever you like with them but i like to cut them into strips)
2 eggs
a 200g of Crinkle Cut potato chips (not sure if they are refered to this way outside of Australia)

1 Crack the 2 eggs into a bowl and whisk.
2 Crunch up the chips, not too finely, but still pretty smashed up. It's up to you what flavour of chips to use. I generally use chicken or bbq. Empty the chips into another bowl
3 Coat the chicken in the eggs (add milk or flour if you feel its necessary) then coat them in the chips
4 Place the chipchicken on a baking tray or dish and bake at 200C (fan forced, 220 conventional) and cook for 20 - 25 minutes.

I've also had pleasant results in sprinkling grated parmesan over the baking tray, before going in the oven

And there we go. Try it tonight, and thank me tomorrow!

Hi Blake,
Sorry, but I won`t be trying your "chicken tonite".

I have no doubt that you find it acceptable but I would do it very differently.

To begin with, I would mix plain flour with freshly grated parmesan cheese and a touch of freshly grated black pepper and dip the strips of chicken or chicken goujons in this. Why not add salt to the mix - because freshly grated parmesan should contain sufficient salt. Next, coat the chicken strips in beaten egg and then VERY, VERY, WELL CRUSHED CHIPS, dip again in egg and crushed chips and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the coating to "set" before frying in deep fat. Serve with a lemon flavoured mayonnaise, garlic flavoured mayonnaise or tomato and chilli flavoured salsa or other mayo/salsa depending upon the flvaour of the chips used.

All the best,
Archiduc

That's an interesting idea. When I make a smilar version of this, I usually only roughly crunch the chips. I'll try really smashing them up next time.

As an aside, Blake, I'm kinda not sure whether this is *your* gift to the world, as I'd be pretty confident it's been done by many people in many countries before! But it is a nice, easy recipe, and your post reminded me that I hadn't made it for ages. I'll have to try it again sometime soon
