Fried Cheese Stuffed Doritos
Ingredients
1 (8 oz) block cheddar cheese
1 (9 oz) bag Doritos (any flavor you like!)
2 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
Cut the cheese: Slice the cheddar cheese into 1/2 inch thick squares. Then cut each square diagonally to make triangles.
Crush the Doritos: Place the Doritos in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin or a sturdy object until they resemble coarse breadcrumbs. You can also pulse them a few times in a food processor.
Set up your breading station: In three shallow bowls, whisk together the flour, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper in the first bowl. Beat the eggs in the second bowl. Pour the crushed Doritos into the third bowl.
Bread the cheese triangles: Dredge each cheese triangle in the flour mixture, then dip it into the egg wash, and finally, coat it completely in the crushed Doritos. Gently press the Doritos crumbs to ensure they stick well.
Freeze (optional): For a crispier crust, place the breaded cheese triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 30 minutes, or up to 3 hours.
Heat the oil: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat enough vegetable oil (around 3-4 cups) over medium heat to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Doritos: Carefully place a few breaded cheese triangles at a time into the hot oil. Don't overcrowd the pot. Fry for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Drain and serve: Remove the fried Doritos from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, like marinara or ranch.
