Notes
To ensure your bombs turn out perfectly every time, consider these helpful tips:
– Ensure Even Cooking: Rotate the baking sheet halfway through the cooking time to promote even browning and cooking.
– Maintain Moisture: Be careful not to overcook the chicken, as that can lead to dryness. Keep a close eye on the internal temperature, aiming for 165°F.
– Storing and Reheating: Store any leftover bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to enjoy, simply reheat them in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
