Hi Chef 18055 - You can certainly modify this recipe according to your liking. If you prefer your chicken a bit crunchier, we would suggest using the full 3 cups of cheetos, but you can use less if you prefer. Hope this helps! -Editors of RecipeLion

Each whole chicken breast has 2 half breasts, so that's a total of 4 breast halves. i think, maybe, that makes it a little more understandable. Hope this helps!

That's A LOT of cheetos for 2 chicken breasts, I'm thinking 1/2 cup. I understand that it's crushed but really, 1-1/2 cup per chicken breast.
