mm,

Gluten-Free flour.

We use Pamela's Baking Mix and a little cornmeal mixed in with it. We then fry is canola oil in a pan. The kids love it!

Kinnikinnick also has crispy chicken coating mix. It's really good. In the past I used Bob's Red Mill gluten-free flour and it browned pretty fast, so make sure that you keep the heat down/watch the meat closely.

I use crushed corn flakes or crushed cheesy rice crackers. Sometimes, I dip the chicken strips in ranch dressing, then roll in corn flakes or cracker crumbs and bake. (Or I cheat and buy Ian's gluten-free nuggets!)

:P I'm a bit lazy. I buy frozen ones. Either Bob Evan's tenders (also have nuggets but the tenders taste better) or Wellshire Farms dinosaur shaped nuggets. Tastes good and only take about 9minutes to cook. :P

I usually make my own breadcrumbs from a half a loaf of gluten-free pantry bread (i buy the mix & bake the bread - it's way easier than you think) - throw some day-old (ie, left out on a plate) slices into the cuisinart with some salt & pepper, garlic, parsley, little oregano, basil - however you like to flavor your breadcrumbs. then i pound the chicken thin & cut into strips, dip in egg wash & then the breadcrumbs & fry em in a pan. my son & husband inhale them. and the breadcrumbs i store in a ziploc in the rfreezer - they last a long time.

We coat the chicken in rice milk and then in mashed potato flakes. Yum!

I use pure cornstarch. In fact, I just did this the other day for DH while I'm out of town. I coated them in cornstarch (my DD4 did it by shaking chicken tenders in a ziploc bag), fried them and set them on a paper towel to cool. Then I put them on a cutting board in the freezer for about an hour, got them back out and tossed them in a freezer bag to store in the freezer. Now they are just like the bags of Tyson chicken I used to keep on hand.

sorry, I meant Bell and Evans.:)

If I make my own I use Ener-G foods gluten free bread crumbs. I use it for nuggets but also for breaded chicken and it tastes very good. But I do buy frozen chicken nuggets as well. We like Ian's and also Wellshire Farms.

I use three bowls, one full of gluten free flour, the second full of beaten egg (as long as there are no egg alergies), and third one full of gluten free breadcrumbs. cut up the chicken breast into nuggets, second roll in the flour until coated, next dip it into the egg and then the breadcrumbs. then place them onto a baking tray and cook in the oven... serve with thai sweet chilli sauce and savour!!mmmmmmmm

I use 1 lb of ground chicken , mix in 1 egg, then coat them in lays regular potato chips crushed up. Bake them in the oven for about 20 min or until brown. They come out tasting just like McDonalds. It a familly fav here!!

Phyllis28 Apprentice

I don't bother with flour at all. I cut chicken brest into strips and season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Bake until done.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

      good luck! vital wheat gluten made me violently ill. I will touch the stuff ever again.  
    • catnapt
      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding.   I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th   I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it.

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks
