Ingredients

Instructions

1 Remove 1 oven rack from oven and arrange on 4 evenly heighted mugs, crocks or saucepans on a flat work surface so that rack is freestanding with at least 4 inches of clearance below. Arrange another rack in the lowest position in oven.

2 Preheat oven to 400°F.

3 Using mortar and pestle or food processor, finely crush or pulse DORITOS® Nacho Cheese Flavored Tortilla Chips. Spread crushed chips evenly on large dinner plate.

4 Spread barbecue sauce evenly on another large dinner plate.

5 One at a time, dip 1 side of tortillas in barbecue sauce and then dredge in crushed DORITOS® to coat. Drape crusted tortillas, coating side up, over 2 bars of freestanding oven rack.

6 Transfer large baking sheet to bottom rack in oven (this will catch any crumbs).

7 Carefully insert oven rack suspending crusted tortillas into oven.

8 Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly crisped and golden brown, and tortillas hold their shape.

9 Using oven mitts and tongs, carefully remove crusted taco shells.

10 Fill shells with your favorite taco fillings to serve.
