Juicy Baked Chicken Bites
Tender, flavorful, and versatile, these juicy oven-baked chicken bites will be a go-to dinner option any day of the week. Easy and delicious!
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chicken base
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400˚F.
- Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces, about 1-2 inch chunks.
- Place the chicken bites in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Pour 1 tablespoon of the oil and the chicken base over the chicken and toss to coat.
- Add all of the spices to the chicken and toss them to evenly coat all of the chicken.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165˚F.
- Once done, allow to sit for 5 minutes then toss the chicken with the chopped parsley and serve.
Notes
Ensure chicken pieces are cut to even sizes for consistent cooking. Don’t overcrowd the baking dish; spacing helps with crisping. Use an instant-read thermometer to check for doneness effectively. Broil for a couple of minutes after baking for added crunch, if desired.
