Stuff each chicken breast generously with the cheese mixture.
Secure with toothpicks if needed.

Place crushed Doritos in a shallow bowl.
Dip each stuffed chicken breast into beaten eggs.
Roll thoroughly in crushed Doritos, pressing to coat well.
Place coated chicken into the baking dish.
Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes until chicken is cooked through and coating is crispy.
Make the Sauce
In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the soup, milk, and pepper.
Simmer 5 minutes until smooth and warm.
Finish
Spoon warm bacon sauce over the baked chicken.
Garnish with parsley or extra cheese if desired.
