Food Safety
Before you start, wash all surfaces and your hands with soap and warm water, and remember to wash your hands, utensils and cutting boards after they touch raw meat or eggs. Avoid cross-contamination by using a different cutting board for your meat and other ingredients. Make sure you’re cooking to safe temperatures and chilling any leftovers within two hours.

Steps
Pat chicken pieces dry. Heat oil in a heavy pot or cast iron skillet until heated to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, parmesan, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, dried thyme and ½ teaspoon (0.5 mL) salt and pepper. In another bowl, add buttermilk.
Dip chicken cubes in buttermilk then evenly coat in breadcrumb mixture. Knock off excess and set aside. Fry chicken in batches, 9-11 minutes until cooked through. Drain on paper towel and season with salt.
While chicken is frying make dipping sauce. Combine sour cream, mustard, tarragon, hot pepper sauce, and season with salt and pepper.
Arrange chicken bites on a plate with a bowl of the dipping sauce.
