Yield Makes 4 to 6 (snack or hors d'oeuvre) servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup amber or dark rum
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 pounds skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
About 2 cups vegetable oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Accompaniments: lime wedges; hot sauce

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.

The chicken bites were a little dry, but the sauce helped to make them more moist.

I'm not a big fan of fried chicken, but these chicken bites were surprisingly good. The breading was crispy and the chicken was juicy.

These chicken bites were a hit! The breading was crispy and flavorful, and the chicken was juicy and tender. I served them with honey mustard sauce and ranch dressing, and they were gone in minutes.
