Find the Best Chicken

Color: Fresh chicken should have a pinkish color. If the flesh is gray or transparent, it's most likely not fresh. Avoid cosmetic damage, such as bruising or tears in the skin, which can affect the chicken's quality. 

Texture: Chicken should also be plump. When you press against it, the meat should be firm but somewhat springy, resuming its shape after a few seconds. 

Odor: Fresh chicken shouldn’t have an odor. If you notice any unpleasant smells, it’s likely the chicken is no longer fresh.   

Ingredient Swaps

Use your favorite spices or spice blends to switch up the chicken bites flavor. You can also swap any of the dipping sauces with your favorite dipping sauce.
