Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat two eggs. Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture.
  5. Roll the egg-coated chicken pieces in the breadcrumb mixture.
  6. Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are not touching and lightly spray with cooking spray or drizzle olive oil.
Baking
  1. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown, flipping halfway through.
Serving
  1. Let cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauces.

Notes

For substitutions, use almond flour or whole wheat breadcrumbs for a healthier option. Keep a close eye on the bites during the last few minutes of baking to prevent burning. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
