1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Butterfly the chicken breasts by slicing them horizontally, taking care not to cut all the way through. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
2. Make the filling: In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and crumbled bacon until well combined. Stuff each chicken breast with the cream cheese mixture and secure with toothpicks if necessary.
3. Coat the chicken: Prepare a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of crushed Doritos and shredded cheddar cheese. Dredge each stuffed chicken breast in the flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the Doritos mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating adheres.
4. Bake the chicken: Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
5. Serve: Remove toothpicks if used and serve the Cream Cheese and Bacon Stuffed Doritos Chicken hot.
Enjoy your flavorful and indulgent chicken dish!
