This post is in partnership with Fleischmann’s® Yeast, all opinions are my own. I could eat finger foods morning, noon, and night so when it’s all said and done, game day eats just might be my favorite kind of eats. I don’t care who is playing the in the big game but whip up a batch of nachos, lil’ smokies, and these bbq chicken bites and I am THERE. These bites are totally a breeze to make using Fleischmann’s® RapidRiseTM Yeast. The RapidRiseTM Instant Yeast cuts out down rising time for the dough and ensures perfectly soft and fluffy dough ready for stuffing with saucy bbq chicken and cheeses. It’s so easy to work with I even let my toddler help me make the dough for these bbq chicken bites! He loved poking his little fingers in the super soft dough almost as much as he liked gobbling up the bites at the end. Once you’ve got your dough made, all just need to roll it out into a large rectangle and cut into squares – a pizza cutter works great for this! Fill each square with some shredded bbq chicken and a sprinkle of shredded Mexican blend cheese, and then pinch all of the corners together to seal the dough shut. Place them in a greased skillet or baking dish and brush with melted butter. Nothing goes with bbq like ranch right?? So lastly you’ll add what I like to call “magic dust”. A mixture of grated parmesan and dried ranch seasoning sprinkled on top of the bites is what makes them completely irresistible, trust me on this one. That’s pretty much all there is to it! All that’s left to do is pop these babies in the oven for about 25 minutes until golden brown and you can smell that buttery parmesan ranch goodness wafting from the oven. Let them cool a bit before serving with prepared ranch dressing for dipping and devouring. These easy BBQ Chicken bites will be an absolute hit at your game day tailgating party! In theory this recipe will serve about 8 people with 2-3 bites each, but they’re so good you might wanna think about making a double batch if you’re serving a crowd because I could eat the entire pan all by myself!
