Paprika chicken bites, a very light and tasty main course that can be prepared with any vegetable side dish, and if paired with a plate of rice, it becomes a complete meal.
In a diet plan, chicken is never missing, but eating it the same way every time (pan-fried chicken breast) can get a bit boring. Here’s how to change the look and taste of a dish with just the addition of spices.
You can also use these chicken bites in a rice salad; for example, I used white rice, sautéed zucchini, mozzarella balls, halved cherry tomatoes, a drizzle of olive oil, and these bites—all cold, of course!
In the kitchen, unleash your creativity because it’s essential, and if you’re out of ideas, follow me, I’ll give you some tips!

How to prepare Paprika Chicken Bites
First, cut the chicken breast into slices, then cut the slices into strips and get bites of about 1 inch.
Put a drizzle of oil in a large pan, and when it’s hot, add the bites, browning them well by turning them over, and cook with the lid on for 8 minutes.
Put the 2 tablespoons of water in a glass, add the paprika, stir well, and pour over the bites, turning them over to absorb the seasoning evenly.
Adjust with salt and pepper and continue cooking for 2 minutes. Serve the chicken hot or let it cool and use as suggested above.
