Paired with our chicken dipping sauce or tzatziki chicken dipping sauce, they become an irresistible treat that’s sure to satisfy any craving.

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.

PREPPING THE SAUCE

  1. Place all the ingredients for the chicken dipping sauce in a bowl and stir to combine. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use. 
  2. Line a plate with paper towels and grate the cucumber onto the paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Allow to sit for a couple of minutes.  
  3. Stir together the Greek yogurt, grated garlic, dill, olive oil, vinegar, and salt.  
  4. Squeeze as much moisture as you can from the cucumbers, then stir into the Greek yogurt mixture. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use. 

PREPPING & COOKING THE CHICKEN BITES

  1. Place the crisper plate into the COSORI Air Fryer basket. 
  2. Select the Preheat function, adjust temperature to 450°F, then tap Start/Pause
  3. Combine the cubed chicken, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and olive oil in a large bowl and toss to combine. 
  4. Place the chicken onto the preheated crisper plate. 
  5. Select the Broil function, adjust time to 6 minutes, then tap Start/Pause
  6. Remove the chicken when golden brown and serve with the dipping sauces. 

Chef Notes: You can make the dipping sauces up to one week in advance and keep them stored in the refrigerator. These chicken bites are great on their own, with the dipping sauce of your choice, or on top of salads, grain bowls, veggies, or pasta. They are also perfect for meal prepping.
