High Protein Chicken Bites

Step 1

Pour the olive oil in a medium skillet and add about 15 garlic cloves. Cook over low heat for about 20 minutes, stirring about every 5 minutes.

Step 2

While the garlic cooks, cut the chicken into 1 inch pieces, trimming any excess fat. Season evenly with salt and pepper. Press the remaining 5 cloves of garlic and set aside.

Step 3

When the garlic is soft and golden brown remove it from the pan and drain and reserve the oil.

Step 4

Add one tablespoon of the oil back into the pan over high heat. Once the oil is hot, place the chicken in the pan in a single layer (if the pan isn't big enough for all of it in a single layer, do a second batch) and let cook for 3-4 minutes. Flip the chicken over and let cook an additional minute, then stir in the pressed garlic (5 cloves) and cook while continuously stirring for 1-2 more minutes.

Step 5

Remove the chicken from the pan, add garlic cloves back in, and toss with the parsley. Serve immediately.
