How to Make Buffalo Chicken Bites

Cut the chicken breasts into thick bite size pieces.
In a bowl, or gallon zip lock bag, add the chicken breasts pieces, apple cider vinegar, ½ teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ cup buffalo sauce, and ¼ cup honey.
Mix until well combined and all the chicken is covered.
Place the marinating chicken in the fridge for about 2-4 hours.
Remove the chicken from the fridge and preheat oven to 350℉.
Place a cooling rack on top of a cookie sheet for best results, or just spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
In a smaller bowl, combine the olive oil, ¼ cup honey, ½ cup buffalo sauce, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, and ½ teaspoon paprika.
Dip each chicken piece into the mixture and place on the cooling rack. Do this until each chicken piece is covered on on the rack.
Place the chicken in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
Remove from oven once done cooking and enjoy!
We like to dip them in ranch or a little more buffalo sauce

Storage Suggestions

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven, an air fryer, or skillet. When reheating, add some more buffalo sauce, as needed, to freshen up the bites.

This looks delicious! Do you have nutritional info for your recipes?
Cake says:

I used chicken tenders, didn't cut them up because they are already so small, added fresh minced garlic to the marinade, and didn't do the second dipping step (but I did boil the marinating juices down and brushed the cooked tendies as I pulled them out of the oven). 20 min at 350 was fine, they were tasty and juicy! Thanks for the inspiration! We ate them with an arugula cucumber salad and boxed mac and cheese (yasssssss) for a fun summer dinner.
Jennifer Larson says:

I was so excited about this recipe but it tasted ok but the texture was awful. I didn’t like the Apple cider vinegar taste. The chicken breast I used was thick but after looking at the pictures I think mine was too thick. They were not crispy at all. The texture was so bad I couldn’t even eat them. Not sure what I could have done to fix it. So bummed cause my whole family usually loves all your ladies recipes.
