Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 ½ teaspoons white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
  • ½ teaspoon celery salt
  • teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon dried basil
  • teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 lbs raw boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into small bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  • In a small dish, stir together your seasoning mix: flour, paprika, white pepper, garlic salt, black pepper, ground ginger, dry mustard, celery salt, salt, dried thyme, dried basil, and dried oregano.
  • Place the chicken pieces into a mixing bowl. Add the seasoning mix to the chicken pieces. Stir the contents of the bowl until the chicken pieces are coated with the flour and spices.
  • *You may want to do this step in two batches so as not to overcrowd the pan – 1T oil and1 lb chicken bites each batch*
    Add the oil to a large sauté pan/walled skillet and bring over med-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken pieces (don’t overcrowd the pan) and stir to break them up and coat them in the oil. Cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes, stirring every couple minutes. Once the chicken is cooked through and a bit golden on the outside, remove from heat and serve.
