About this recipe
These Crispy Buffalo Chicken Bites are the ultimate party appetizer, perfect for game day or any gathering. With a quick prep time of just 20 minutes, they deliver big flavor without a lot of fuss.
This recipe features tender chicken pieces coated in a seasoned flour mix, fried until golden brown, and tossed in Frank's buffalo wing sauce for that classic spicy kick.
Ingredient notes
- For the chicken, you will need 400g of chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces.
- The egg wash consists of 2 large eggs and 2 cups of milk, mixed well.
- The flour mix includes 1 tablespoon of Tony's seasoning, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
Tips from Texas Made’s video
- When breading the chicken, work in batches of 6 to 8 pieces to prevent clumping in the flour.
- Fry the chicken at a temperature between 325-350°F (163-177°C) for optimal crispiness. If the chicken floats to the top, it's almost ready; you can fry longer for extra crispiness if desired.

Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
- 2
Prepare the egg wash by mixing together the eggs and milk in a bowl.
- 3
In another bowl, combine flour, Tony's seasoning, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper to create the flour mix.
- 4
Bread the chicken pieces by first coating them in the flour, then dipping them in the egg wash, and finally returning them to the flour. Do this in batches of 6 to 8 pieces to avoid clumping.

Heat the fryer to 325-350°F (163-177°C). Fry the breaded chicken pieces in batches of 8 to 12 until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove when they float to the top and are golden brown.

In a bowl, toss the fried chicken bites with Frank's buffalo wing sauce until well coated.

Serve the buffalo chicken bites with ranch dressing on the side and garnish with parsley.
