What temperature do you cook my Chicken Bites?
I cooked them at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes. Most noteworthy, if your chicken is cut into larger than 1-inch cubes or if you use thick-cut bacon, it will take longer to cook.

I can almost 100% guarantee that everyone that tries these will like them. I’m not a big meat eater, but bacon really does make everything awesome!
My meat-eating boys love this recipe. I make it for their entree and serve with vegetables and salad.
As well, my family likes to dip almost everything is a sauce. For these, I recommend BBQ sauce, Blooming Onion sauce (light), Lulu’s Wow Sauce (amazing!), Comeback Sauce, or Ranch (because Ranch is great on everything).

Hi! Can I cook and reheat them in the oven the next day? Thank you!
You can but I recommend reheating in the slow cooker and they won’t dry as as much. Just put them in the slow cooker on low until heat then turn to warm.
Can I prep these a day in advance? They look and sound amazing!
Yes, that’s a wonderful idea!
This looks really delish!! A sure hit for gameday!
I think I will make those next time when we have a PlayStation day planned. IT’s going to be awesome with those delicious bites!
This would be such a perfect dish for a superbowl party!! I love it!
