Tips

  • Donโ€™t stress over making this dish perfectly presentable. If you donโ€™t have the suggested garnishes, itโ€™s still just as delicious eaten as-is, straight out of the bowl. 
  • This recipe for Kung Pao Chicken Bites would also work well if using chicken wings or drumsticks. Marinate as suggested. When itโ€™s time to grill, wings should take about 20 minutes, and drumsticks about 30-35 minutes. Chicken is safe to eat when the internal temperature reaches 165 โ„‰. 
  • These Kung Pao Chicken Bites will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.
