Steps

• Take the chicken breasts and cut them into small, bite-sized cubes. Aim for uniformity in size to ensure even cooking. Season the chicken pieces generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. This is the secret to ensuring that each bite bursts with flavor.
• Place a square of Swiss cheese and a small piece of ham in the middle of each chicken cube. Secure each piece with a toothpick to hold everything together. This step ensures your Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites maintain their form while cooking.
• Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Gently coat each chicken bite in flour, followed by the egg wash, and finally the breadcrumbs, ensuring an even coat for the ultimate crispy finish.
• Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the chicken bites in batches to prevent overcrowding, ensuring they turn golden brown and the cheese inside melts perfectly. Flip them using tongs to cook evenly. When they're golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels.
