Spiced chicken bites are a quick and tasty recipe to make with chicken, which is often cooked at my house and I always try to cook it in different ways.
Quick and delightful, and surely everyone will appreciate it.
Personally, I love adding flour to this type of dish because it creates a creamy texture that I really love, but it can also be done without it.
The lemon is used to marinate the meat; you might leave it in the fridge for about half an hour and then proceed with the dish preparation, and you’ll see it will significantly affect the final result.
Just replicate my recipe, and I’m sure you’ll love it.
If you replicate the recipe, feel free to send me your photos, and I’ll put them on my fb page in your name!
