Key West Chicken Bites are perfect as a summer appetizer or light meal. Chunks of chicken breast are marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, honey, lime juice, and garlic, and then grilled until wonderfully charred.
They have a little sweetness from the honey and the lime juice gives them a fresh, summery taste.
Serve them over rice for a light meal or with a bowl of Ranch or Honey Mustard Dip for a fun party food. Key West Chicken Bites are low fat, low calorie, and full of flavor.
Serve them over rice for a light meal or with a bowl of Ranch or Honey Mustard Dip for a fun party food. Key West Chicken Bites are a high protein, low carb meal.
If the chicken pieces are too small for your grill grates, you’ll have to use a grill pan.
You could also thread them on skewers and make kabobs out of them. Perfect for summer grill time!
I love to serve Key West Chicken Bites with fresh Corn on the cob.
