Description

Delicious grilled chicken bites served with a creamy garlic sauce for an irresistible flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and mix well. Marinate for 30 minutes or up to 12 hours.
  2. To make the sauce, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream and bring to a low simmer.
  3. Add Parmesan and Dijon mustard to the cream. Stir until smooth and slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
  4. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface.
  5. Grill chicken pieces for 3–4 minutes per side until nicely charred and cooked through.
  6. Transfer chicken to a serving dish. Drizzle with warm garlic cream sauce.
  7. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Marinating the chicken for longer enhances the flavors.
  • Adjust garlic in the sauce according to taste.
  • Serve with a side of vegetables for a complete meal.
