How to Make Lemon Garlic Chicken Bites
- In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, freshly squeezed lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, honey, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Whisk until blended and fragrant—this is your flavorful marinade!
- Cut the boneless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, then add them to the marinade. Toss to ensure every piece is well-coated, then let them marinate for at least 30 minutes to infuse all those delicious flavors.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Alternatively, heat some extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- For Baking: Spread the marinated chicken pieces on a lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, until they are beautifully golden brown.
- For Sautéing: Cook the chicken in batches in the hot skillet for 5-7 minutes per batch until crispy and golden brown.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F. Garnish with fresh herbs or lemon wedges before serving for that extra flair.
