Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Chicken Bites

Pro Tips Here are some pro tips to ensure your Air Fryer Barbecue Bacon Wrapped Chicken Bites turn out perfectly every time: Choose the Right Bacon: Opt for thin to medium-thick bacon. Thick-cut bacon can take longer to crisp up and might not cook evenly with the chicken. Uniform Chicken Pieces: Cut the chicken into even-sized bite-sized pieces. This ensures that they all cook at the same rate and are done simultaneously. Prevent Stickiness: Lightly spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray or parchment paper with holes. This will help prevent the chicken bites from sticking to the basket. Secure the Bacon: Use toothpicks to secure the bacon around the chicken pieces. This prevents the bacon from unraveling during cooking. Avoid Overcrowding: Cook in batches if necessary. Overcrowding the air fryer can lead to uneven cooking and less crispy results. Brushing the Sauce: Apply the barbecue sauce before cooking for a deeper flavor infusion. You can also brush a little extra sauce on the bites halfway through cooking for a more glazed effect. Flipping is Key: Flip the chicken bites halfway through the cooking process. This ensures that the bacon gets crispy on all sides. Check Internal Temperature: Ensure the chicken is fully cooked by ensuring its internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Rest Before Serving: Let the chicken bites rest for a few minutes after cooking. This helps redistribute the juices inside the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful. Sauce Variations: Experiment with different types of BBQ sauce, or mix in some honey, mustard, or hot sauce to customize the flavor to your liking. Garnish for Presentation: A sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley or chives can add color and a fresh flavor contrast. Serving Suggestions: Serve with dips like ranch dressing, blue cheese, or more BBQ sauce on the side for added flavor. Cleanup Tip: If you find the sauce has left a sticky residue in your air fryer, soaking the basket in warm, soapy water for a while will make cleaning easier. Following these tips will help you create a delicious and visually appealing dish that's sure to be a hit with family and friends! ​ Faq's What type of chicken is best to use for this recipe? Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are typically used for their lean nature and even cooking. You can also use chicken thighs for a juicier option. Can I use thick-cut bacon for this recipe? It’s best to use thin to medium-thick bacon as it wraps easily and cooks evenly with the chicken. Thick-cut bacon may not cook through properly and can leave the chicken overcooked. How do I prevent the chicken bites from sticking to the air fryer? Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil or use a perforated parchment liner designed for air fryers to prevent sticking. How long should I cook the chicken bites in the air fryer? Typically, it takes about 10-15 minutes at 390°F (200°C), depending on your air fryer model. It's important to flip them halfway through for even cooking. How do I know when the chicken is done? The internal temperature of chicken should have an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). A meat thermometer is handy for checking this. The size of the chicken will determine the cooking time. Can I prepare these chicken bites ahead of time? Yes, you can wrap the chicken in bacon and refrigerate them for a few hours before cooking. Just brush them with BBQ sauce right before air frying. What are some good dipping sauces for these chicken bites? Ranch dressing, blue cheese sauce, honey mustard, or extra barbecue sauce are great options. Can I make this recipe gluten-free? Yes, just ensure that the barbecue sauce and any other added ingredients are gluten-free. How should I store leftovers? Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer for best results. Can I freeze the cooked chicken bites?Yes, once cooled, you can freeze them in a sealed container or freezer bag. Reheat in the air fryer straight from frozen, adjusting the cooking time as needed. Are these chicken bites keto-friendly? They can be, depending on the barbecue sauce used. Opt for a low-sugar, keto-friendly BBQ sauce to make this dish suitable for a ketogenic diet. Can I make these bites in an oven if I don't have an air fryer? Yes, you can bake them in an oven preheated to 400°F (205°C) for about 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the chicken is cooked through. More Air Fryer Recipes
