Follow The Directions

01

Step

Gather all ingredients and prepare your workstation. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Dip each chicken piece into the beaten egg, allowing excess to drip off. Then, transfer the chicken to the flour mixture, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accurate temperature. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Carefully add the coated chicken pieces to the hot oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. (15-20 minutes)

06

Step

While the chicken is frying, combine the hot sauce, minced garlic, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the butter is melted and the sauce is warm. Stir to combine. (3 minutes)

07

Step

Serve the Buffalo chicken bites immediately with the warm hot sauce mixture as a dipping sauce. Alternatively, you can toss the fried chicken bites in the sauce for a more intense flavor. (2 minutes)

For extra crispy chicken, double-dip the chicken in the egg and flour mixture.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper and hot sauce to your preferred level of spiciness.
Serve with blue cheese or ranch dressing and celery sticks for a classic Buffalo wing experience.
Try using different types of hot sauce for a unique flavor profile.
