Ingredients
Scale
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup buttermilk (or a dairy-free alternative)
1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for desired spice level)
1/2 cup buffalo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
2 tablespoons honey (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil or cooking spray for baking
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine diced chicken pieces with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Set up a breading station with bowls of flour, buttermilk, and seasoned breadcrumbs. Dip each piece of chicken first in flour, then buttermilk, and finally coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
Place the breaded bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and drizzle olive oil or cooking spray over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
In a small saucepan, mix buffalo sauce and honey over low heat until well combined and slightly warmed.
Once the chicken bites are done, transfer them to a large bowl, pour the buffalo sauce over, and toss until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
