Golden Gluten-Free Chicken Strips(3 Ways to Cook)

These crispy gluten-free chicken tenders are a total game-changer! Crunchy, juicy, flavorful, and totally family-approved. Whether you air fry, bake, or pan-fry, they come out so good every time.

Ingredients

• 2 lbs chicken tenderloins

• 3 cups King Arthur Gluten-Free Measure for Measure Flour

• 2 eggs

• 1½ cups milk

• 1 tbsp onion powder

• 1 tbsp Kinder’s Truffle Salt Blend (or your fave seasoned salt)

Optional: garlic powder, paprika, black pepper

Instructions

1️⃣ Prep your dredge station:

Bowl 1: Whisk eggs + milk. Blend in onion powder, truffle salts and any other seasonings.

Plate or Bowl 2: Mix flour, onion powder, truffle salt, and optional seasonings.

2️⃣ Coat the chicken:

Dip each tenderloin into the egg mixture, then coat in flour mix. For extra crispiness, double dip: egg ➡️ flour ➡️ egg ➡️ flour again.

3️⃣ Air Fryer:

Preheat to 400°F

Lightly spray basket and chicken with oil

Air fry 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway

4️⃣ Oven:

Preheat to 425°F

Place tenders on a wire rack over a baking sheet

Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway

5️⃣ Stovetop Frying:

Heat ½ inch of oil in a skillet over medium heat

Fry chicken 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden and fully cooked

Transfer to paper towel-lined plate

📝 Note

💡 Don’t overcrowd your pan or air fryer—cook in batches!

💡 Want a little heat? Add cayenne to the flour mix.

💡Dip Ideas: ranch, honey mustard, buffalo sauce, or spicy ketchup!

Enjoy, love! 🩵

... Read moreGluten-free diets can be both delicious and satisfying. These chicken strips are not just easy to make, but they're also versatile. You can enjoy them as a main dish, in wraps, or as a snack with your favorite dipping sauces like ranch or honey mustard. The choice of gluten-free flour enhances the texture, making them crispy without losing the juiciness of the chicken. When preparing these strips, consider adjusting the seasoning to cater to your taste. Onions and garlic both elevate the flavor profile. For those who enjoy a little heat, cayenne pepper can be added to give a kick. Don't forget to experiment with different dipping sauces to accompany your chicken strips! Air frying is a fantastic option that saves on oil, while baking keeps it simple and healthy. If you prefer a more traditional method, frying in a skillet gives that classic crunch. The fun part is that each method provides a unique twist while remaining gluten-free! For storage, ensure any leftovers are kept in an airtight container in the fridge to maintain their crunch when reheated. Enjoy these strips as a quick weeknight dinner, or as part of a festive gathering. They're sure to be a hit with everyone!
