boneless buffalo bites

Boneless Buffalo Bites 




My family is a strange bunch. I don't really think we're too weird....  Maybe not so much the same as most though.  I have this rule- we don't buy chicken nuggets because they are not real.  When you can show me where the nugget is on a chicken, then we will eat them.  Plain and simple...  But we do eat chicken regularly, and one of our favorite ways to eat it is the boneless buffalo bite!  Well, I like the buffalo bites- the kids like the bar-b-que bites.  The hubby just likes to eat.  He's not picky.  I like that.  Here's what you need:

*  one boneless, skinless chicken breast per person cut into bite sized pieces
*  bread crumbs
*  a little olive oil
*  sauce of choice - wing sauce, bbq, honey mustard, whatever you like
*  bowls with lids or containers with lids

Here's what you do:  Heat olive oil on med in a skillet on the stove.  Take the bites and put into a bowl. You want these to get a coat of breadcrumbs.  Depending on how much chicken, pour in the breadcrumbs, cover with the lid, and shake shake shake to coat chicken.  Put chicken into hot oil and cook chicken through.  *Don't pour chicken into pan because you don't want the excess bread crumbs.  When chicken is cooked put desired amount into a new container and coat/cover with selected sauce.  Then put the lid on and shake shake shake to coat chicken.  Try not to use too much sauce, so as not to be wasteful...  Remember, you can always add more but you can't take away.  Once chicken is nice and coated in selected sauce, put it on a plate and eat...  That's my favorite part.   I usually make mine and serve carrots, celery, and fries with them...  and ranch dressing of course.  We like these while watching Shark Week on Discovery....  Yeah, no football here.  Told you we were a strange bunch.
