Preheat your oven to 420°F (220ºC) conventional.
Cut chicken into 1-inch cubes.
In a small bowl, combine all seasonings (salt, pepper, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chicken stock, and Italian seasoning).
Arrange chicken in a baking dish and sprinkle with the seasoning mix.
Drizzle a tablespoon olive oil and toss chicken cubes with the seasoning to coat on all sides.
Speck seasoned chicken with butter cubes.
Bake seasoned chicken in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) using a meat thermometer.
After 8-10 minutes, stir the chicken bites with a spoon for even baking.
Once done, the chicken bites should be golden with crisp edges.
For crispier chicken bites, switch to broil on high for the last 2 minutes of cooking until golden.
Remove the baking dish from the oven, sprinkle chicken with fresh chopped parsley, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the oven-baked chicken bites over cauliflower rice with a good drizzle of the pan juices and a slice of lemon.
