Description

These super easy buffalo chicken bites will satisfy your munchie cravings, AND they take very little effort to make!

Equipment


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1020 frozen chicken bites (I love Just Bare)
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/3 cup hot sauce (preferably Frank’s Red Hot)
  • 1/4 cup honey


Instructions

  1. Cook the chicken bites. Cook the chicken bites according to package instructions. I like to air-fry my Just Bare chicken bites at 370 for 9 minutes, then flip and cook for 4 more minutes.
  2. Make the sauce. Meanwhile, combine the melted butter, hot sauce, and honey in a bowl and whisk until combined.
  3. Sauce up the nuggs. Add the cooked nuggets into the bowl with the sauce and toss the nuggets until perfectly coated in sauce.
  4. Serve and enjoy! Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, like ranch, and some crunchy veggies for the perfect munchies experience. Enjoy!

Notes

My Buffalo sauce is designed to be really simple and easy to make with pantry staples, but if you want to kick it up a notch, add a bit of garlic powder, smoked paprika, and a dash of Worcestershire sauce for an even deeper flavor.
