First of all I'm a terrible cook, no doubt about it. I just got these new corn flake things and I put a little McCormack garlic powder, oregano, salt and Kraft parmesan cheese in them to fry my chicken cutlet. Fried in Olive Oil. Needless to say it didn't taste too good. What am I missing? Is it Parsley??

One good thing though, these corn flakes don't seem to burn as easily as the old breadcrumbs did! For the lousy cooks in the world out there LOL

Any help would be appreciated. L

I have never used that brand, but I do pretty much the same thing with crushed up gluten free corn flakes. Try adding about 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper and a little paprika to the ingredients you are using. Also did you did it in egg? If you can have egg, dip the chicken in egg first, then roll in breadcrumb mixture. I also bake mine instead of frying (375 for 30-45 minutes, depending on how big your chicken pieces are); much less mess and healthier that way too ;)

Thanks for the tips! I've never been a big fan of pepper but maybe now I can start to expand my choices to accommodate my new situation. Paprika, unfortunately, really upsets my tummy (even though I loooove it). I was thinking maybe a little onion powder too?

I was too lazy for egg tonight so I used milk LOL. I wonder if egg would improve the taste? Also I definitely will bake sometimes. Especially in winter when having the oven on warms up my kitchen (and apartment). I like baked chicken alot.

What I made tonight was bland, then again I feel pretty ok right now. No heartburn, etc. so maybe bland suits me!

I just recently found and started using this product. On the directions, it states to combine 1 cup of Southern Home Style Corn Flake Crumbs with 2 tablespoons of melted butter or margarine. You must do this for the breading to get crunchy. It also says to moisten meat (chicken, pork or fish) in lightly beaten egg. Then roll in corn flake crumbs. It also states that this is an oven style breading which means that items are baked. I am not real sure if this item is intended to be deep fried. I used it for oven fried chicken and oven fried fish and both were terriffic...Even gluten eating significant other really liked it. Oh! I also used it to top stuffed bell peppers and it was great!

LOL OK, this proves again that I'm a terrible cook. It would seem to me if I took two tablespoons of melted butter and poured it into one cup of crumbs it would just get absorbed in one area of the crumbs. So let me ask, LOL, do you mean coat the chicken first and then sprinkle the butter over the chicken once it's breaded and ready to go into the oven? (terrible cook, and I mean that, I am just clueless in the kitchen). I saw the butter thing but figured for frying I might not need it so I skipped it.

And as to the frying, I think I saw on Amazon, or on someone's blog that they used these crumbs to bread and pan fry some chicken but maybe I misread. However, I will say this, it worked pretty good. It was golden brown and crispy. Very uniform all over. Really LOOKED nice... just tasted kind of awful!! These actually fry up more uniformly than regular bread crumbs ever did (at least for me)! My previous experience with breaded cutlets was either burnt or falling off the chicken into the pan. With these it looked like a professional cutlet! Just tasted like the first person booted off Top chef!

Thanks for the tips. I'll try to add some butter next time and mix it around and see how it turns out! I just need some good spices to make it worth my while!

Hey wait!! I just checked the package and it says "southern Homestyle Corn Flake Crumbs pick up less oil in frying. That means less calories and fat and no oily appearance"

So I guess they are good for frying!! I can attest to the fact that there was alot of oil left in the pan but the cutlets themselves were also still a bit oily. When you fry something there's no way around that I guess :)

Sorry it took so long for me to reply. I place the crumbs in a shallow pie dish and melt two tablespoons of butter and pour it sparingly over the crumbs. Then I take a fork and mash the crumbs in with the butter and it kind of moistens the crumbs some. I don't know if this is the correct way to do it, but it worked for me...

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By trents · Posted

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By Sarah Grace · Posted

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.
