Skinny Spicy Chicken & Artichoke Bites

January 25, 2016 Amanda Plott

With the biggest football game day of the year just around the corner, and even more sports about to start back up with their seasons I'm delving into game day foods. Finger foods and little stackable grab-and-go bites are what I'm all about. So any excuse for party food is a good excuse to me.

Today I wanted to try something a little different, using one of my favorite dips in a new and different way. Generally my game day spread is full of dips and popable bites, and this is definitely one of my new favorites.

I was able to get my hands on some delicious La Terra Fina Artichoke & Jalapeño Dip and had some leftover chicken on hand, so I pretty much knew exactly what I wanted to do! These chicken bites are pretty easy to make and full of flavor too. I kept these bites a bit more wholesome by using whole wheat white flour, white meat chicken breast, and of course veggies.

I crusted these bites on the outside with a corn cereal to give that needed crunchy contrast of texture to go against the shredded chicken, melted cheese, and dip on the inside. Of course, I had to serve my bites with some fresh crisp veggies and a spiced up ranch with added green enchilada sauce. 

These little bites are perfectly light and crisp while being a great addition to any game day or even just because. Honestly, these were so good that they actually ended up being dinner!

And with being only about 78 calories for 3 'bites', you don't have to feel guilty about popping more than one serving if it's going to be a meal rather than an appetizer!
