Notes
To ensure your Grilled Chicken Bites with Creamy Garlic Sauce turn out flavorful and cooked to perfection, here are a few tips:
1. Marinate the Chicken: For even more flavor, you can marinate the chicken in the seasoning mix for 30 minutes to an hour before grilling.
2. Grill at High Heat: Make sure your grill or grill pan is hot enough to get a nice sear on the chicken without overcooking the interior.
3. Let it Rest: After grilling, allow the chicken bites to rest for a few minutes before serving to lock in the juices.
4. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the creamy garlic sauce and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to suit your taste preferences.
