Often times when I’m making a recipe I have to buy a product that I don’t use on a normal basis.  While this is totally fine, I’m often left with half of the product after I’m finished making the recipe.  I have plenty of items in my cupboards that are like this and that makes for a crowded cupboard.  However, I’m not one to waste food if I don’t have to so I often look for creative ways to use up the rest of the product.

Looking for an easy recipe? Try this Crispy Honey BBQ Baked Chicken!

This happened the other day when I came across the recipe for these Honey BBQ Baked Chicken Bites.  The recipe called for corn flakes, which we never have at home, but I happen to have half a box of corn crisp cereal.  I know they aren’t the same thing but my feeling was they are both corn based cereal and once they are crunched up they probably taste very similar.   I’ve been wanting to use the corn crisp cereal for the past month so this was a win-win for me.

Looking for a delicious weeknight meal? This delicious Crispy Honey BBQ Baked Chicken recipe is one the entire family will love!

So I got to work making this tasty dish.   I coated the chicken with flour, then eggs, then the corn cereal mixture.  I simply put it on a rack and baked it in the oven.  I was happy with how crispy the chicken bites turned out.  The sauce is made separately and is tossed with the chicken right before serving so that the chicken stays crispy.

The sauce is an interesting combination.   It is like a sweet and spicy BBQ Sauce.   The original recipe calls for a lot of honey but I needed to cut back on it because it was way too sweet the first time I made it.

The whole family will enjoy this Crispy Honey BBQ Baked Chicken recipe for dinner.

These chicken bites are delicious.  They are slightly sweet, just a touch spicy, and really crunchy.  While we had them for dinner they would also make a great appetizer or Game Day snack.
