Ingredients:
1 bag of Doritos (any flavor of your choice)
8 ounces block of cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup plain breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions:
Prepare the Doritos:
Carefully open the bag of Doritos and set aside. You will use them as the coating for the fried cheese.
Stuff the Doritos:
Take each cube of cheddar cheese and press it into the center of a Dorito chip, ensuring it is fully covered by the chip. Repeat with the remaining cheese cubes and Doritos.
Prepare the Breading Station:
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. Place the flour in the first bowl, beaten eggs in the second bowl, and breadcrumbs in the third bowl.
Coat the Stuffed Doritos:
Take each cheese-stuffed Dorito and dip it first into the flour, shaking off any excess.
Next, dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
Finally, coat it in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere to the surface. Repeat with the remaining stuffed Doritos.
Fry the Stuffed Doritos:
In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
Carefully add the coated stuffed Doritos to the hot oil in batches, frying for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon or tongs to transfer the fried stuffed Doritos to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining batches.
Serve and Enjoy:
Serve the Fried Cheese Stuffed Doritos immediately while they are hot and crispy.
You can enjoy them plain or serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as salsa, guacamole, or ranch dressing.
Tips:
Experiment with different flavors of Doritos for a variety of taste experiences.
Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying to ensure the stuffed Doritos cook quickly and evenly without absorbing too much oil.
Be careful when handling hot oil to avoid burns. Use kitchen tongs or a slotted spoon to safely transfer the stuffed Doritos to and from the oil.
Enjoy these Fried Cheese Stuffed Doritos as a fun and delicious snack for game days, parties, or anytime you’re craving something indulgent and cheesy!
