Ingredients

Protein

  • 1 lb chicken, cut into 1-inch chunks (for even baking)
  • 1.5 tbsp olive oil
  • 1.25 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter (I like Kerrygold for this)
  • 0.5 tsp pepper
  • 0.75 tsp paprika (I use McCormick for a deeper color)
  • 0.25 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0.25 tsp cayenne
  • 0.75 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.75 tsp onion powder
  • 1.5 tsp chicken stock liquid concentrate (gives better flavor and moisture)
  • 1.5 tsp italian seasoning

Fresh parsley

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss chicken chunks with olive oil and seasonings.
  • Arrange chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Melt butter and brush over chicken for extra crispiness.
  • Bake for 20 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For extra crunch, add a light coating of panko breadcrumbs before baking.
