Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Unsalted chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon White vinegar
• 0 as needed Olive oil spray

Directions

Step 1

Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch cubes.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure all seasonings are evenly distributed.

Step 3

Gradually whisk in the unsalted chicken broth and white vinegar to form a smooth, thick batter. Ensure there are no lumps in the mixture.

Step 4

Add the chicken pieces to the batter, ensuring each piece is well coated. Allow it to marinate for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly spray the parchment paper with olive oil.

Step 6

Arrange the battered chicken bites onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they do not touch each other.

Step 7

Lightly spray the tops of the chicken bites with olive oil to promote even browning.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the batter is golden and crisp, flipping the bites halfway through using tongs or a spatula.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your choice of low-sodium dipping sauce or a fresh salad for a balanced meal.
