To prepare, these frozen chicken bites can be heated in an oven, microwave, or air fryer. For best results, preheat your oven or air fryer and cook until the chicken is heated through and the sauce is bubbly. If using a microwave, ensure even heating by stirring halfway through. They are best served immediately after heating to maintain their texture and warmth. Avoid overcooking, which can make the chicken dry.
