A delightful twist on baked chicken, combining sesame and parmesan for a crispy, flavorful coating.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
In a mixing bowl, combine the parmesan cheese, sesame seeds, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, onion powder, and breadcrumbs.
Mix thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Uniform pieces ensure even cooking.
Brush the chicken pieces with melted butter.
This helps the coating stick better to the chicken.
Coat the chicken pieces in the sesame-parmesan mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Ensure each piece is fully coated for maximum flavor.
Place the coated chicken pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the pieces and bake for another 10 minutes.
Flipping ensures even browning on all sides.
For extra crispiness, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Keep an eye on the chicken to prevent burning.
Serve the crispy chicken bites warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
