Ingredients
  

1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces, paprika, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated with the spices.

    Melt the Butter: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic. Sauté the garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant, but be careful not to burn it.

      Cook the Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken pieces to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F/75°C).

        Add Lemon Juice: Once the chicken is cooked, add the lemon juice to the skillet. Stir well to coat the chicken in the lemony garlic butter.

          Garnish & Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley over the chicken bites for added flavor and color. Serve them warm as a delightful appetizer or main dish.
