Origin

A fun, kid-friendly snack that’s easy to make at home. Sauce Pantry’s Sweet & Sour turns simple chicken bites into a delicious dipping treat kids (and adults) love.

Pro Tips

  • Bake chicken bites instead of frying for a healthier option.

  • Let kids do the dipping — it makes snack time more interactive and fun.

Things to Watch Out For

  • Make sure chicken is cooked through (165°F internal temperature).

  • Don’t over-thicken the sauce — keep it light for easy dipping.

Process

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces, coat lightly with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Optional: toss in breadcrumbs for crunch.

  3. Bake chicken on a lined sheet pan for 18–20 minutes until golden and cooked through.

  4. While baking, empty one Sweet & Sour sachet into a Sauce Pantry jar, add the instructed liquid, and shake until smooth.

  5. Serve chicken bites warm with the sauce on the side for dipping.
