This is a copycat recipe for the cajun chicken bites served in the food court in some malls. My family loves it. The prep time does not include the marinade time.

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (I think breast meat is too dry for this recipe) or 1 lb other boneless skinless chicken pieces, cut in bite-size chunks (I think breast meat is too dry for this recipe)

1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon powdered ginger

2 tablespoons white wine

Steps:

  • Mix all the marinade ingredients, except white wine, in a zip lock bag.
  • Put chicken pieces in the bag.

  • Bake chicken at 350 F for one hour in a single layer, basting with marinade every 10 minutes.
  • Remove chicken.
  • Scrape pan juices with all the brown bits and pour into a skillet.
  • Add any remaining marinade and add 2 tbsp white wine to the skillet.
  • Heat and add chicken.
