Steps:
- In 12-inch skillet, cook bacon over low heat 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Set aside.
- Between pieces of waxed paper or plastic wrap, place each chicken breast smooth side down; gently pound with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/2 inch thick. Cut into 2-inch pieces. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
- In shallow bowl, mix 1/2 cup Bisquick mix and the chipotle powder. In another bowl, beat egg with fork. Dip chicken into egg mixture; coat with Bisquick mixture.
- In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add chicken; cook 6 to 8 minutes, turning once, until chicken is no longer pink in center and coating is golden brown. Meanwhile, in another small bowl, stir together Maple-Bourbon Butter ingredients until smooth. Set aside.

FRIED CHICKEN BITES
Steps:
- Stir together rum, lime juice, soy sauce, and sugar in a shallow bowl until sugar has dissolved. Add chicken and stir to coat. Marinate at room temperature 25 minutes.
- While chicken finishes marinating, heat 1 inch oil in a deep 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
- Meanwhile, whisk together flour, paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl. Drain chicken and pat dry. Dredge in flour, shaking off excess, then transfer to a plate.
- Fry chicken in 3 batches, turning occasionally, until deep golden brown and cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes per batch. (If chicken darkens too quickly, reduce heat.) Transfer to paper towels to drain.
Tips:
- Use a digital thermometer to ensure the chicken bites reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
- For a crispier coating, double-coat the chicken bites in the flour mixture.
- To save time, use pre-cut chicken breasts or tenders.
- For a healthier version, bake the chicken bites in an air fryer or oven instead of frying them.
- Serve the chicken bites with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.
