- In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant and golden brown (be careful not to burn the garlic).
- Add the red pepper flakes (if using) and give it a quick stir.
4. Combine chicken with the garlic butter:
- Return the cooked chicken bites to the skillet with the garlic butter sauce. Toss to coat the chicken evenly in the sauce, cooking for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
5. Serve:
- Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the garlic butter chicken bites with fresh parsley and freshly grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
- Serve immediately with rice, pasta, a side salad, or enjoy as is!
Tips:
- Make it creamy: For a creamier garlic butter sauce, you can add 1/4 cup heavy cream to the pan after adding the garlic, allowing it to simmer for a few minutes until thickened.
- Add veggies: You can throw in some sautéed vegetables like spinach, zucchini, or mushrooms for added flavor and nutrition.
- Extra flavor: Try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the top before serving for a burst of brightness.
