This is easy, doesn't make a big mess, and is probably the best fried chicken I have ever made. You would never guess it was gluten free! Measurements are estimated and the seasonings are optional. Just use enough for the amount of chicken you have. Ingredients:
8 chicken tenders |
1 cup milk |
2 tablespoons lemon juice or 2 tablespoons lime juice |
1/4 cup frank's red hot sauce |
1 cup gluten-free baking mix (i used bob's red mill pancake mix) |
1/2 cup brown rice flour |
1 tablespoon seasoning salt or 1 tablespoon preferred mixed herbs |
1 inch peanut oil |
Directions:
1. Mix together the milk, lemon juice, and hot wing sauce in a medium sized bowl. Add chicken and let marinate while preparing the flour mixture. 2. Preheat about an inch of oil on medium high. 3. Put the dry ingredients in a large zip lock bag and shake. 4. Put 1 or 2 pieces of chicken at a time in bag and shake until well covered. 5. When oil is hot, add 3 or 4 tenderloins at a time and cook until golden brown. 6. Drain on paper towels. Use an oven-safe plate to keep the first batch warm in the oven on about 170 degrees. 7. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces. I like the hot wing sauce and ranch. 8. You could make a cream gravy using the leftover seasoned flour. For example, melt 3 tablespoons butter, add 3 tablespoons flour mixture and cook for a few minutes, add 1-1/2 to 2 cups milk and stir until bubbly. |
