    Southern Fried Chicken (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    Soaking chicken in salt water, or brining and frying it in lard, are the keys to great fried chicken. However, you may choose to substitute 2 cups vegetable oil for the lard.

    Ingredients:
    ¼ cup plus 1 teaspoon salt, divided
    6 cups water
    3 pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces, or 3 pounds of thighs or drumsticks 1 quart gluten-free buttermilk
    1 pound lard or 2 cups vegetable oil
    ½ cup unsalted butter
    1-2 cups Open Original Shared Link* (can include some soy flour for crunchy, texture and golden color)
    2 Tablespoon cornstarch
    ½ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
    Bacon or ham chunks

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    Directions:
    Combine ¼ cup salt and water in a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag. Add chicken; seal bag and marinate in refrigerator for 8 hours. Drain. Combine chicken and buttermilk in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate 8-12 hours. Drain on a wire rack. Combine lard or oil, plus butter in a heavy skillet. Begin by sautéing the pork in the oil. This adds tremendous flavor to the chicken.

    Combine flour, cornstarch, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper on a piece of wax paper. Dredge chicken in flour mixture; tap well to remove excess. Working in batches, place chicken, skin side down, into heated oil. Do not crowd. Cook until chicken is golden brown and cooked, 10-12 minutes per side.

    Pierce with a fork; if juices run clear, chicken is done. Remove and drain thoroughly on a wire rack.

    Makes: 6 servings.

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    This recipe comes to us from Melonie Katz.
    Note that this recipe calls for 2 sheets of Pepperidge Farms Puff Pastry, so you will need a gluten-free alternative for this, or just skip the step for this.
    Ingredients:
    8 Chicken Breasts
    6 ounces Wild Rice, Cooked (or a gluten-free risotto such as one made by Lundberg Farms)
    1 jar (10 ounce size) red currant jelly
    ¼ cup grated orange peel
    1 tablespoon prepared mustard
    3 tablespoons port wine
    ¼ cup lemon juice
    Directions:
    Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Season chicken with salt & pepper. Cook wild rice or risotto according to directions. Stir in orange peel.
    If using a gluten-free pastry sheet alternative, roll out each puff pastry piece & place a chicken breast on each puff pastry q...

    This recipe is a classic that is perfect for a cold Winter's day. There is nothing like good old fashioned chicken noodle soup to warm up your day!
    Ingredients:
    2 cups gluten-free flour, plus extra (I used Better Batter from the Gluten-free Mall)
    3/4 tsp salt
    3 eggs, plus 1 egg yolk
    10 cups chicken stock (or a mixture of stock and broth)
    1 tsp dried thyme
    3 ribs celery sliced
    3 carrots peeled and sliced
    1 large onion chopped
    1 dried bay leaf
    1 bunch parsley
    2 TB flat-leaf parsley (for garnish, optional)
    1 3 to 3 1/2 lb. chicken (organic works best)
    Directions:
    1. In a large pot, combine stock, celery, carrots, onions, bay leaf and chicken. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer for 1 hour to 1 hour...

    When I was growing up, pot roast was one of the most favorite things my mom made. I fondly remember many a Sunday when I came home to the smell of pot roast cooking in the oven, and counted the minutes until dinner hit the table.
    These days, with time being tight, I rarely get a chance to make pot roast. This recipe uses a slow cooker to make a delicious, moist and juicy pot roast with carrots, onion and potatoes. Even better, it is easy to prepare, and makes its own gravy.
    This recipe will make 8-10 servings, depending on how hungry your eaters are.
    Ingredients:
    4 pounds chuck roast
    salt and pepper to taste
    5 tablespoons dry onion soup mix (recipe below)
    1 (18 ounce) can Progresso creamy mushroom soup (it's gluten-free!)
    1 cup water
    3 carrots, chopped
