Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Place the doritos in a food processor (or use a large resealable bag and rolling pin to finely crush the chips) and blitz until the chips become a fine crumb. Transfer the pulsed chips to a bowl. Add the flour and eggs to their own respective bowls, then begin breading the chicken. Dip each piece of chicken in the flour, then the egg, then the chip crumbs and toss around to coat evenly. Repeat for each piece of chicken, then transfer to a parchment lined baking tray. Bake for 14 - 16 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
- While the chicken bakes, start to make the 1UP sauce. In a food processor combine the mayo, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, salt, and blue cheese. Pulse well to combine evenly, then transfer to your serving bowl and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the hot sauce and melted butter. When the chicken bites are cooked, remove from the oven and toss in the hot sauce and butter. Top with freshly sliced chives and serve alongside the 1UP sauce.
- Enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose the right type of milk: Whole milk will produce a richer, creamier sauce, while skim milk will produce a lighter, healthier sauce. You can also use a combination of milk and cream for a more luxurious sauce.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh herbs, spices, and vegetables will give your sauce the best flavor. If you don't have fresh ingredients on hand, you can use dried herbs and spices, but be sure to use half the amount called for in the recipe.
- Don't overcook the sauce: Overcooking the sauce will make it thick and gloppy. Cook the sauce until it is just thickened and coats the back of a spoon.
- Season the sauce to taste: Be sure to taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, herbs, or spices to taste.
- Serve the sauce immediately: Cream sauce is best served immediately after it is made. If you need to store the sauce, you can keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Cream sauce is a versatile and delicious sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes, from pasta to chicken to vegetables. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a creamy sauce that will impress your family and friends.
