This is always in demand at any football get together. You can make the bites and use any type of sauce you want. Me personally, I like to take a quarter cup of Sweet Baby Ray's® barbecue sauce and a quarter cup of Franks Red Hot® sauce and mix it together.

Categories     appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Vegetable oil, for frying
2 1/2 cups complete pancake mix, any brand, divided
1 1/4 cups water8 teaspoons hot sauce, divided (recommended: Tabasco)
1 1/4 pounds chicken tenders or chicken breast cut into small bite-sized pieces
1 cup store bought, good quality refrigerated blue cheese dressing (recommended: Marie's brand)
2 scallions, finely chopped
1 teaspoon coarse black pepper,
1/3 palm full
Cut celery sticks, store bought

Steps:

  • In a deep sided skillet heat 1 1/2 inches of vegetable oil over medium heat. If you wish to test the oil, add a 1-inch cube of bread to hot oil. If it turns deep golden brown in color in a count of 40, the oil is ready.
  • While the oil is heating make the batter. In a wide mixing bowl combine 2 cups of the pancake mix, 1 1/4 cups water and about 6 teaspoons hot sauce. (Use a regular teaspoon you would stir coffee with ¿ that's what I did. I don't, technically, have a set of actual measuring spoons.)
  • Place the remaining plain 1/2 cup pancake mix in another wide mixing bowl. Arrange the batter and the bowl of plain pancake mix near the cook top and the heating oil. Line a plate with a few sheets of paper towels and keep within reach.
  • Once the oil is heated and ready, toss the chicken pieces in 2 teaspoons of hot sauce then toss in the plain pancake mix, coat evenly and shake off excess. The plain dry pancake mix will help the batter stick to the chicken pieces. Add some of chicken to the batter, you are going to want to work in 3 to 4 batches coating and frying. Using a fork, toss the bites in the batter. Remove the first batch from the batter, shaking off the excess batter as you carefully add them to the hot oil. Fry for 2 minutes on the first side, or until the first side is a deep golden brown, flip and continue to fry for another 2 minutes or until deep golden brown all over. Remove from the oil and drain on the paper towel lined plate, season with salt. Repeat until all the popcorn chicken bites are fried. Serve immediately with refrigerated, good quality creamy blue cheese prepared dressing with chopped scallions and black pepper stirred into it for dipping. Garnish platter with celery sticks.

BUFFALO TOFU BITES



Buffalo Tofu Bites image

This is another recipe I adapted to be vegan from the Healthy Cooking Class I took over Winter Break. Original recipe used chicken tenders. I really like this recipe because of all the whole grains and seeds that were incorperated into the breading mixture, and the fact that they were baked instead of fried. The chef who created the recipe did not use exact mesurements, so the dry spices that are added to the breading mixture are my own measurements and are all marked "to taste". The chef was also a big fan of the Kashi brand whole grain crackers, but those are NOT vegan. I substituted Wasa wholegrain crackers instead.

Provided by Kozmic Blues

Categories     Soy/Tofu

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 -2 tablespoon garlic powder (to taste)
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper (to taste)
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Cut the pressed tofu block into bite sized cubes, place in a bowl, and cover with the hot sauce.
  • Let marinate in the fridge at least 1 hour, or overnight.
  • For the breading: In a blender or food processor, mix together the panko, crackers and flax seeds.
  • Season to taste with the garlic powder, salt and cayenne pepper.
  • Remove tofu cubes from the hot sauce and place in the breading mixture, coating all sides evenly.
  • Place the breaded cubes on a sprayed sheet pan and cook in a pre-heated 375-degree oven for 18-20 minutes, or until crispy. Serve hot with some cucumbers, carrots, and celery sticks.

BONELESS BUFFALO BITES image

My kids love buffalo wings, but I hate the mess they make w their hands after eating them. These bite size boneless wings eliminated the messy hands and faces! The recipe isnt exact science. Just a few ingredients. No measuring is really needed. Just enough hot sauce and breaded needed to coat the chicken and into the fryer it...

1 12oz bottle franks hot sauce
2 c house autry chicken breader
1/2 c buttermilk (optional for milder flavor)
2 clove grated garlic (or a little garlic powder)
1 bottle veggie or peanut oil (for frying)

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are the best choices for buffalo bites. They cook quickly and evenly, and they're not too dry.
  • Cut the chicken evenly. This will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too big, they'll take longer to cook and may not cook through. If they're too small, they'll dry out.
  • Use a good quality hot sauce. The hot sauce is the key ingredient in buffalo bites, so make sure you use one that you like. There are many different types of hot sauces available, so you can find one that has the right amount of heat and flavor for you.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Buffalo bites are best when they're cooked through but still juicy. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the buffalo bites with your favorite dipping sauce. Ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and honey mustard are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Buffalo bites are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties or game days. With a few simple ingredients, you can make buffalo bites that are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for something tasty to eat, give buffalo bites a try. You won't be disappointed!
