If you’re looking for a simple yet incredibly satisfying chicken recipe, this dish is about to become your go-to. With just a few everyday ingredients and minimal prep, you can transform raw diced chicken into a rich, buttery, and perfectly seasoned meal that’s bursting with flavor.
This recipe focuses on a clever technique: pouring melted butter over raw diced chicken along with three key ingredients that enhance taste and texture while keeping everything juicy and tender.
🧾 Ingredients
- 500g (about 1 lb) chicken breast or thighs, diced into bite-sized pieces
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano (or Italian seasoning)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional: 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- Optional garnish: fresh parsley, chopped
🔪 Step-by-Step Method
1. Prepare the Chicken
Start by washing and patting dry your chicken pieces using paper towels. Cut them into evenly sized cubes to ensure they cook uniformly.
Place the diced chicken into a baking dish or oven-safe tray. Spread them out in a single layer so they cook evenly instead of steaming.
2. Make the Butter Mixture
In a small bowl, melt the butter using a microwave or stovetop. Once melted, add:
- Minced garlic
- Paprika
- Oregano
Mix well until everything is combined. This buttery mixture will act as both a marinade and a cooking sauce.
