    Crispy Asian Chicken Bites

    We are in the holiday season which means time for appetizers and lots of them. This is an easy appetizer that can be made in less than 30 minutes making it perfect for the holidays.

    These Crispy Asian Chicken Bites are guilt free because they are baked and not fried. The chicken is tossed in a sweet and spicy Asian sauce made of soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and honey. The sauce is a bit spicy thanks to the sriracha and crushed red pepper flakes.

    This is the perfect finger food for the holidays or game day.

    Tender on the inside with a nice crunch on the outside. Just how I like my chicken.

    The chicken is extra crunchy thanks to the panko breading. A simple 3 step breading made of flour, egg and panko breadcrumbs. A tip for breading your chicken. Make sure to use both hands. One hand for wet ingredients and one hand for dry. This helps from getting the dreaded breading hands.

    These chicken bites are simple. flavorful and dripping with sauce.

    I used boneless skinless chicken breasts and cubed them into perfectly bite sized portions.

    This chicken can be made into a meal by adding brown or white rice.

    How to make Crispy Asian Chicken Bites

    To make these easy Chicken Bites bread the chicken starting with flour and ending with the panko breadcrumbs. Place the chicken bites in a 400 degree oven and bake for 15 minutes. While the chicken is baking I make the Sweet and Spicy Asian Sauce. Garlic is sautéed in oil and the rest of the ingredients are tossed in. A corn starch slurry is used to thicken up the sauce. Once the chicken is done I toss it in the sauce and serve immediately.

    This chicken is so addicting it is hard to stop eating them! Give this a try for dinner tonight.
