Chicken has been a common theme in our house this week. I posted my Honey Mustard Chicken recipe a few days ago, and here I am posting another chicken recipe! The truth is these Creamy Italian Chicken Bites are really that good and although I had other recipes lined up to share, I wanted to share this one first!
I am also working with limited ingredients these days as we are trying to limit grocery store trips. The state of Pennsylvania is still under a stay at home order which means we are at home 99% of the time. We have followed all the rules and are only going out for essentials which has just been grocery store trips for us. With trying to limit going out, we have been avoiding trips to the grocery store for things that we may have previously forgotten. This has forced me to improvise a couple times and hey, it was a fun challenge!
Back to the Creamy Italian Chicken Bites recipe, it is pretty straight forward. This is a great recipe for beginner cooks, especially children and teens! You cube your chicken, add the spices, cook and you are basically done. It can totally be a 30 minute meal if you move quickly. The chicken is relatively low key when cooking, so you can prepare a side dish or veggie at the same time. It makes for a perfect weeknight meal, or even meal prep for the week. I love the simplicity of this recipe and the best part is that it does not lack flavor.
