Lemon & Garlic Chicken Bites

1. Prepare the Marinade:
   • In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, dried oregano (if using), honey (if using), salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chicken:
   • Add the chicken pieces to the bowl with the marinade. Toss until all the chicken is coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, to allow the flavors to infuse.
3. Cook the Chicken Bites:
   • Heat a large skillet or pan over medium-high heat and add a bit of olive oil.
   • Once hot, add the marinated chicken pieces to the pan. Sear the chicken on all sides until golden brown and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes depending on the size of your chicken pieces. Make sure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).
4. Serve:
   • Transfer the chicken bites to a serving plate. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and lemon wedges for extra zing.
   • Serve hot as an appetizer, snack, or with a side of rice or vegetables for a full meal.

Tips:

• For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for a little heat.
• These chicken bites also work well on skewers, especially for grilling or serving at parties.
