Baked Chicken Bites For a healthier alternative, bake the chicken bites. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C), place the coated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Chef's Pro Tips

1

For extra crispy chicken, try double frying. Fry the chicken for 3 minutes, remove and let rest for 5 minutes, then fry again for another 2 minutes until golden brown.

Storage Guide

kitchen

Store leftover chicken bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results.

Avoid These Mistakes

✕ A common mistake is overcrowding the pan when frying, which lowers the oil temperature and results in soggy chicken. Fry in batches to maintain the oil’s heat.
