These bite-sized Popcorn Chicken pieces are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and absolutely addictive. A double coating of seasoned flour creates an extra crunchy shell while the buttermilk marinade keeps the chicken incredibly moist. Better than any fast food version, this homemade recipe is perfect for game day, movie night, or anytime you need an irresistible snack.
