Make quick, flavorful garlic butter chicken bites in one pan. This recipe is ready in 15 minutes and works well for dinner or an appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Season the cut chicken pieces evenly with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chicken to the hot skillet in a single layer. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is browned on all sides and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Do not let the garlic burn.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the sauce simmer for 1 minute.
  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Toss the chicken thoroughly to coat it in the garlic butter sauce.
  7. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a Parmesan crust variation, toss the cooked chicken bites with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese just before serving.
  • You can use chicken thighs instead of breasts for a richer flavor.
  • If you prefer a spicier flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes with the garlic.
