Chicken bites with bacon are an extremely tasty main course, prepared in no time (I love quick, tasty, and practical recipes!) and cooked quickly in the oven. A different way to serve chicken breast, the bites remain tender, juicy, and not dry, in short, you must try them because they are truly delicious, I liked them very much, can you tell from the description I made? Now, hurry to the kitchen!

Preparation of chicken bites with bacon
Take half a whole chicken breast (mine weighed 14 oz) and cut it into cubes about 1.5 inches in length, try to cut them more or less equally.
Mix the breadcrumbs with a pinch of salt and coat the chicken bites in them (you will see they will bread perfectly).
Now wrap each cube with a slice of bacon and secure them with a toothpick.
Place the chicken bites with bacon in a non-stick baking tray, pour the oil (as per recipe) over them.
Heat the oven to 482°F, bake, cook for 15 minutes then finally give 3 minutes of grilling to crisp the bacon and voilà the chicken bites with bacon are ready! Remove the toothpicks and serve them!
In the portions, it says “for two people” (considering it only as a main dish), obviously it’s subjective and also depends on how hungry you are and what you pair it with, if you serve them after a nice first course, for example, they are enough for 3/4 people if accompanied by a side dish!
