I have a question about the chips. Do I measure 4 cups of chips and then crush them, or do I need 4 cups already crushed?

thanks!

Will frozen chicken breast work? Fresh chicken breasts rarely go on sale and usually $4.99 for two breasts, the frozen ones are usually same price for 4-5 breasts if I remember right so starting to think about using them.

Yep you can use frozen – just make sure to defrost it first ;)

These are awesome! I used a little more chips than you suggested. I like my chicken extra crispy. I added some spicy green beans and my hubby loved them! Excellent AND easy.
