This was so good. I used what was left of the Death Rain potato chips in the
cupboard, mixed it with some regular potato chips. Came out terrific.
Crunchy. DH loved it. Served it with roasted veggies and a salad.

I placed the chicken in the oven at 350°F for 15 minutes after I removed it
from the pan and drained it on paper towels.
