garlic chicken recipes

This dump chicken recipe features two of my favorite flavors… garlic and lemon! It's also incredibly easy to make and it's 100% delicious.&nbsp;

Lemon Garlic Dump Chicken

tsp minced garlic

olive oil

Tbsp parsley flakes

lemon juice (or the juice of one whole lemon)

chicken breasts (or 8 to 10 chicken tenders)

Place all ingredients into a 1-gallon freezer bag. I used wide mouth half gallon mason jar to hold the bag upright while I filled it with the chicken and other ingredients.

After sealing the bag, turn the bag over several times until everything is combined and the chicken is well coated. Freeze flat.

I decided to prepare several of these meals at the same time, so I could store them in my freezer to use later on. Here is my stack of prepared dump chicken dinners all ready for the freezer!

Thaw chicken. Pour chicken and marinade into a baking dish, turn chicken to coat. Bake at 350 F for 35 minutes.

Option 1 – Bake

Thaw and grill in a cast iron skillet on the stove, or outside on the barbecue grill, until no longer pink inside.

Option 2 – Grill

Place the frozen chicken in your slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours (or high for 4-6 hours.)

Option 3 – Slow Cooker

Honey Butter Garlic Chicken Bites are crispy, bite-sized pieces of chicken coated in a rich, buttery honey garlic sauce. Perfectly balanced with sweet, savory, and garlicky flavors, these easy-to-make chicken bites are great for weeknight dinners, appetizers, or meal prep. Serve them over rice or alongside your favorite veggies for a delicious and satisfying dish.

Honey Butter Garlic Chicken Bites

boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs), cut into bite-sized pieces

salt

black pepper

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

garlic powder

all-purpose flour (for dredging)

unsalted butter

garlic,

honey

soy sauce

apple cider vinegar rice

red pepper flakes (optional)

cornstarch + 2 tablespoons water (optional for thickening)

parsley

sesame seeds (optional)

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season evenly with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

Lightly dredge each piece in flour, shaking off excess to create a light, crispy coating.

Heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add the chicken bites and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).

Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a paper towel to soak up these oil.

In the same skillet, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat.

Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.

Stir in honey, soy sauce, vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.

(Optional) If a thicker sauce is desired, mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water and stir into the sauce. Simmer for another 1-2 minutes until thickened.

Return the chicken bites to the skillet, tossing them in the sauce until fully coated. Let them cook for 2 more minutes to absorb the flavors.

Garnish with chopped parsley and sesame seeds.

Pair with roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or sautéed green beans.

Goes well with brown rice and garnished with green onions cut on a bias.
