Steps to make Buffalo Chicken Bites:
- Prepare Chicken thighs: You have 2 options. Option 1. Put chicken thighs and half the bottle of Frank's in a crockpot, set on low for 8 hours. Shred when done. Or 2. Cook chicken thighs in a skillet with a little oil, shred and add Frank's hot sauce when done.
- Add the onion, bell pepper, cheddar cheese, salt and pepper to the chicken. Set aside.
- Cook white rice according to package directions. I'm lazy and use minute rice. Throw that rice in the bowl with the other stuff. Give it a stir.
- Add the rest of the hot sauce to the bowl, stir well.
- Time to prepare the dough! Put the flour, salt, sugar and yeast in a bowl. Give it a stir.
- Add the warm water and grapeseed oil to the bowl. Stir until combined. Add more flour if it's too sticky, more water if it's too dry.
- Roll out that dough on a floured surface until it's thin, but not too thin.
- Cut the dough into 3x3 squares, or cut it however big you want. Bigger squares mean bigger bites. You should preheat the oven to 375 now.
- Add enough chicken filling to the dough square to fill it, but still be able to wrap it up into a happy little pocket of awesomeness. About 2 TBSP per 3x3 square.
- Keep on filling and wrapping. Set them on a pan covered with a sil pat, parchment paper, or lightly greased with oil.
- Make an egg wash: take 1 egg and keep just the whites. Give it a quick whisk.
- Apply a thin layer of egg white using a pastry brush to each pocket/bite. Sprinkle with some salt and pepper.
- Bake in the oven at 375 for 20-25 minutes or until browned.
- You're done! Serve them bad boys with ranch or bleu cheese dressing and some celery.
