  4. In another bowl, combine breadcrumbs and minced fresh parsley.
  5. Cut skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, coat them in the Dijon mixture and then in the breadcrumb mixture.
  6. Thread coated chicken pieces onto soaked skewers, leaving space at both ends.
  7. Arrange skewers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 6 to 8 minutes, until chicken is opaque.
  8. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve with your favorite dipping sauces.
