Cheese is one of my favorite foods. I use cheese in all kinds of dishes; from comfort foods to savory foods. There is such a variety of cheeses; I love trying new kinds but sometimes good old cheddar is just what I need. Cheese and cheese flavors also come in so many forms from the infamous cheese in a can to cheese flavored crackers to cheese coated crackers and chips. It’s everywhere!
Since I love cheese so much I thought I would experiment and make a super cheesy chicken. Why not combine my love for cheese in all forms and make a wonderfully cheesy meal? That’s what my Cheesy Cheez-It chicken and cheesy squash casserole was all about. If you love cheese or just have to satisfy a craving for it then this will definitley do it for you!
Cheesy Cheez-It Chicken
Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast
2-3 well rounded tablespoons sour cream
1/4 Cup shredded cheddar
1/4-1/2 Cup Cheez-It crackers, crunched up
Pepper, to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line pan with foil and spray with a little cooking oil
Season both sides of chicken with fresh, ground black pepper. You may use a little salt if you like but the crackers have plenty of salt in them. I used a little sea salt:).
In a bowl mix the sour cream and shredded cheddar.
Pour crackers on a plate to roll chicken in.
Coat chicken in sour cream mixture, roll in crackers and then place in prepared pan.
Place in oven and bake for about 30 minutes.

Great Idea! Cheezits are my weakness, so I can't really buy them – I'd eat an entire box at once. This could be the perfect excuse to sneak a box home! Looks awesome!
