Ingredients
- 1 lb Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.75 cup Barbecue sauce
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1-inch in size.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, toss the chicken pieces with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to coat evenly.
Step 3
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet in a single layer and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
Step 5
While the chicken is cooking, mix the barbecue sauce and honey in a small bowl to create the glaze.
Step 6
Once the chicken is cooked, reduce the heat to low and pour the barbecue-honey mixture over the chicken.
Step 7
Stir well to coat the chicken evenly in the sauce. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and clings to the chicken.
Step 8
Remove the chicken bites from the heat and transfer them to a serving plate.
Step 9
Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy!
