How to Make Cajun Chicken Cubes With Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce

  1. Cut 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes.
  2. In a medium bowl, sprinkle 2 tbsp Cajun seasoning (adjust to taste) over the chicken cubes. Toss well to coat evenly.
  3. Let the seasoned chicken stand for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. While the chicken marinates, whisk together 1/4 cup honey and 2 tbsp Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Set aside.
  5. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. The oil is hot enough when a drop of water sizzles immediately.
  6. Add the chicken cubes to the skillet in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Cook, stirring occasionally, to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
  7. Brown the chicken cubes on all sides for approximately 4 minutes, reducing heat if browning too quickly.
  8. Continue cooking for another 2-4 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). The chicken should be firm and no longer pink inside.
  9. Transfer the cooked chicken cubes to a serving plate.
  10. Serve warm with the honey mustard dipping sauce. Provide cocktail forks or toothpicks for easy dipping.
