Cajun Bourbon Chicken Bites image

This is a copycat recipe for the cajun chicken bites served in the food court in some malls. My family loves it. The prep time does not include the marinade time.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (I think breast meat is too dry for this recipe) or 1 lb other boneless skinless chicken pieces, cut in bite-size chunks (I think breast meat is too dry for this recipe)
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon powdered ginger
2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
1/2 cup Bourbon (like Jim Beam)
2 tablespoons white wine

Steps:

  • Mix all the marinade ingredients, except white wine, in a zip lock bag.
  • Put chicken pieces in the bag.
  • Refrigerate at least several hours (preferably overnight).
  • Bake chicken at 350 F for one hour in a single layer, basting with marinade every 10 minutes.
  • Remove chicken.
  • Scrape pan juices with all the brown bits and pour into a skillet.
  • Add any remaining marinade and add 2 tbsp white wine to the skillet.
  • Heat and add chicken.
  • Boil for one minute and serve over cooked rice, or as an appetizer with individual toothpicks in each piece of chicken.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The chicken bites are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The glaze is also delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of Cajun food, but I loved these chicken bites. The bourbon glaze really makes them special.

The chicken bites were a bit dry, but the glaze was delicious. I'll try again with a different cut of chicken.

I love the way the bourbon brings out the flavor of the chicken. This is a great recipe for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.

These chicken bites were a hit at my last party! The Cajun seasoning and bourbon glaze were the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. I'll definitely be making these again.
