Natural and organic potato chips seem to taste best on the day you open the bag, and they tend to have a shorter shelf life. I often find that we end up with a partial bag of broken chips in the pantry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Potato Chip Chicken is the perfect way to use those chips, and it’s a simple dinner that both the adults and kids will like. (Be sure to check out our recipe for Cool Ranch Doritos Chicken<\/a>, too!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
