Ingredients
- 2 lbs. chicken breast (cut into bite-size pieces)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Oil or non-stick cooking spray
Buffalo Sauce:
- 3/4 cup buffalo wing sauce (Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce)
- 4 Tablespoons butter
- 3 Tablespoons brown sugar (or 2 Tablespoons honey)
Instructions
- Start by cutting the chicken breast into bite-size pieces. Toss in a bowl with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drizzle with olive oil. If you prefer not to use oil, spray with non-stick cooking spray. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until the chicken is cooked through. The cooking time will depend on the size and thickness of the chicken breast.
- In a small pot or in a microwave safe bowl, heat the buffalo sauce, butter, and sugar together until the sugar is dissolved. Toss with cooked chicken coating each piece with the sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes to allow the sauce to coat the chicken.
- Serve with ranch dressing, bleu cheese dressing, carrots, and celery or with mashed potatoes or smashed potatoes.
Notes
- Substitutions and Variations:
- For extra freshness, sprinkle fresh scallions on top of the buffalo chicken bites.
- If you don't want to use brown sugar, you can substitute honey instead. I would suggest using 2 Tablespoons of honey.
- If you don't want to saute the chicken in oil, spray the large skillet with non-stick cooking spray.
