for an appetizer because I thought it looked good but had not tried it. Well, now I have and It is really good. The chicken comes out really moist but I made some changes after I made it the first time. I now salt and pepper the chicken before coating them in the chips and I don't drizzle with butter but spray with butter flavored cooking spray. I also cook them at a very high heat, 450 F. for about 12 minutes so they get crisp and brown. We like them alot.
