Baked Hot Lips Jalapeño Chicken

Source of Recipe


From "Cooking with Three Ingredients" by Andrew Schloss






List of Ingredients



• 4 chicken breast halves, bone in
  
• 4 chicken thighs, bone in
  
• 1/3 cup ranch dip
  
• 2 Tbsp canned chopped jalapeño chilies (or green chiles)
  
• 1-1/2 cups corn bread stuffing mix crumbs
  






Instructions



1. Remove the skin from the chicken and place in a gallon-size closable storage bag.
   
   
2. Stir together the ranch dip and chilies. Pour over the chicken, seal the bag and toss to coat the chicken. Marinate at room temperature 30 minutes, or refrigerate up to 24 hours.
   
   
3. Remove the chicken from the bag and coat with the crumbs. Arrange in a single layer in a large baking pan and bake in a preheated 450º F oven about 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp and brown. (The higher cooking temperature will give a crispy coating similar to fried chicken.)
   
   Makes 4 to 6 servings.
