Step-by-Step Instructions for Garlic Butter Chicken Bites

  • In a 1-gallon freezer bag, add the flour, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and onion powder. Seal the bag tightly, then shake vigorously for about 30 seconds until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Add the bite-sized chicken pieces to the seasoned flour mixture in the bag. Seal the bag again and shake well for another 30 seconds until the chicken is evenly coated.
  • In a small bowl, pour in the melted butter and add the minced garlic and finely chopped parsley. Whisk together for about 15 seconds until well combined.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil, allowing it to warm for 1-2 minutes. Once shimmering, add the coated chicken pieces and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  • Pour the prepared garlic butter sauce over the chicken and stir gently to coat. Cook for an additional minute to allow the flavors to absorb.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat and serve the Garlic Butter Chicken Bites immediately while hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired.

Notes

Use fresh ingredients for maximum flavor. These bites are best served hot and immediately after cooking.
