Sweet Heat Pepper Jelly Chicken Bites

Spicy and Sweet Chicken Bites Glazed with Pepper Jelly

Ingredients:

1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

1/2 cup sweet heat pepper jelly

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Toothpicks (for serving)

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine the sweet heat pepper jelly, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Arrange the marinated chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice glaze, flipping halfway through for even cooking.

Once cooked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly.

Serve the chicken bites on a platter, garnished with chopped green onions and toothpicks for easy eating.
