NOT-SO-PRO TIPS
If you don’t have cooked chicken on hand, bring a pot of water to a boil and add uncooked chicken breasts. Cook for 10-15 minutes, depending on chicken’s thickness, until cooked through. Chicken should be easily shreddable with 2 forks.
Wonton wrappers are a great, versatile ingredient you should be able to find in any major grocery store! Mine has them in a refrigerated section of the produce department with plant based cheeses.
Want to eat these BBQ Chicken Pizza Bites as a larger treat? Use a regular muffin tin! Place a wonton wrapper in 6, greased muffin cups. Top with half of filling. Cover with a second layer of wontons and the rest of the filling. Baking instructions stay the same.
