Ingredients
  

Chicken and Marinade
  • 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (or chicken breasts) Choose tender cuts that will create juicy bites, ensuring every piece is packed with flavor.
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced) Fresh garlic adds an aromatic and savory element that enhances the dish.
  • Kosher salt To taste.
  • pepper To taste.
  • BBQ seasoning blend Choose a blend that complements the dish.
  • Blackstone Honey Jalapeno seasoning (optional) For an extra kick.
  • Cooking oil of choice To achieve a perfect sear.
Sauces
  • 1/4 cup BBQ sauce A rich and tangy sauce.
  • 3 tablespoons hot honey Provides a sweet yet spicy twist.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, combine the bite-sized pieces of chicken, minced garlic, kosher salt, pepper, and the BBQ seasoning blend.
  2. If you’re feeling adventurous, sprinkle in the Honey Jalapeno seasoning for an extra layer of flavor.
  3. Toss everything together until well combined and allow the chicken to marinate for about 15 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Set your Blackstone griddle to medium heat. Once heated, drizzle in your chosen cooking oil.
  2. Add the marinated chicken to the griddle, spreading the pieces out evenly.
  3. Allow them to cook for 6 to 7 minutes, using spatulas to mix and flip the chicken.
  4. Once the chicken is nearly cooked through, pour in the BBQ sauce and hot honey.
  5. Stir well for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
Serving
  1. Serve these Hot Honey BBQ Chicken Bites straight off the griddle or use them as a filling for tacos, quesadillas, salads, or rice bowls.

Notes

Marinating the chicken for longer enhances the flavor. Ensure that your griddle is properly preheated to prevent sticking. Adjust spice levels to your preference.
