Gluten Free Fried Chicken Recipes?

Hello everyone! I am in need of a tasty gluten-free fried chicken recipe (or oven fried). Does anyone have any experience here? The last time I tried it the chicken had a decidedly fishy taste and smell :( I soaked it in buttermilk before coating it w/ gluten-free breading recipe I found online and used my electric skillet to fry it. It was so bad we called it "chicken-fish". I now have a brand new electric skillet. Is the poultry seasoning found in grocery stores safe to use?

Hey minimommy! My husband made some a few weeks ago with Mary's Gone Crackers. He crushed them up in a bag, draped the chicken through eggs and then coated them in the cracker crumbs. It's not exactly the same as Southern fried chicken but it was tasty!

I did "real" fried chicken using the flour blend I usually use (Analise Robert's mix of brown rice flour, potato starch, and tapioca flour), but we prefer soaking it in buttermilk and then dipping it in crushed Doritos Cool Ranch chips w/ a little taco seasoning added and baking it. It's delish!

Poultry seasoning is really just a mix of several different spices and should be gluten-free. What does the label say?

Hi Minimom :D

I use Potato Buds to "bread" my chicken and then oven fry.

What I do is beat an egg in one dish and in another combine Potato Buds, salt, pepper, and a generous amount of garlic powder. Turn the oven on to 375.

Dip the chicken pieces in the egg first and then coat well in the potato mixture. Drizzle some oil in a baking dish (I use some non-stick foil for easy clean up) and place the coated chicken on top. At this point, if there's any potato mixture left, you can sprinkle it over the chicken. Drizzle lightly with a little more oil and bake at 375 for about 45 minutes or until done.

My whole family loves it this way and it makes the house smell incredible while it's cooking.

I used to make oven baked with crushed cornflakes. Haven't made it in a while but I'm going to with gluten-free cornflakes. There was just another thread a day or so ago about using Rice Chex for crunchy toppings.

Yes, that's what I do. I use Rice Chex and Corn Chex and grind them in the food processor. Then I take 1/2 cup of mayo mixed with 1 tablespoon of dijon mustard and mix it. Coat the chicken with the mayo mixture (just rub it on lightly) then coat in the Chex mixture. Place on a baking sheet and spray with no stick spray. Comes out REALLY crispy and tastes great.

Why not go for the real thing?

SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN

Dip chicken pieces in buttermilk and then shake in a bag with flour(I use rice flour with a little Gluten Free Pantry flour blend added) lots of salt and black pepper.

Fry in enough oil to come half way up the chicken. Make sure the oil is hot enough (about 350-370)Don't crowd the pan. Keep turning every 5 or so minutes until golden brown and chicken is done. Drain on brown paper bags.

Try it!

I dip my chicken pieces in egg, than dredge in 1/2 cornstarch and 1/2 rice flour that has been seasoned with salt/pepper and garlic powder. I than fry it in pan with oil just like I used to prior to going gluten-free. Not healthy I know..:) since frying it in oil..but nice treat every once in a while.

I do a baked "fried" chicken recipe and dip the chicken in egg/milk mixture, than coat with crushed gluten-free corn flakes that are mixed with parmesean cheese, garlic, onion powder, salt and pepper. I than dot the chicken with butter and bake in oven. It turns out good too. Good luck!

If you have a deep fat fryer, you may want to try this.

Southern Style Fried Chicken (KFC eat yout heart out)

Get a pack of chicken pieces from your supermarket,

drumsticks (lower leg),

thighs (upper leg),

ribs,

wings etc

some super markets sell mixed packs and others will only contain one type.

Place pieces into a pot, cover with cold water and bring to a boil.

Reduce to a simmer for about 5 - 10 mins (a good indicator is when the meat starts to pull away from the bone on the drumsticks)

Remove pieces to a rack to cool and drain (But retain the cooking liquid)

As the pieces are cooling, prepare the coating and turn your deep fat fryer on to high.

Coating:

Gluten Free flour mix, (for a crisper coat add some medium Polenta) season with salt, ground black pepper and ground lemon pepper (if available).

occasional small flecks of pepper should be visible in the flour mix.

You can make it slightly spicier, try using American BBQ seasoning (McCormick or similar) or chili flakes.

When the oil is hot and the chicken is cool take a piece momentarily dip it in the cold cooking liquid

cover in the seasoned flour and continue until all the pieces are coated.

Place chicken pieces in deep fat fryer and cook until the coating is golden in colour

(no more than 4 pieces at a time) remove and drain on kitchen paper.

P.S.

Remember the chicken is already cooked, the browning of the coating and reheating won't take long.

Best Regards,

David

I won't even go near the gravy, believe me you DONT WANT TO KNOW how they make that!

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By klmgarland · Posted

      Thank you so very much Scott.  Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful.  If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      My only proof

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisone treatment for inflammation?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.
