GLUTEN-FREE BEER BATTERED CHICKEN AND VEGGIES



Gluten-Free Beer Battered Chicken and Veggies image

Gluten-free version of everybody's favorite. The method and ingredient ratios were suggested to me by members of this site, then tweaked by me. I have tested this a few times and these ingredients are optimal for a simple batter which allow the flavor of the vegetables and chicken to shine through. My whole family enjoyed it, even those who aren't gluten-intolerant.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups vegetable oil for frying
1 red bell pepper
1 onion, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 ¾ cups gluten-free all purpose baking flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 cup gluten-free beer
½ cup sparkling water
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Steps:

  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Dry sliced bell pepper, onion, and zucchini on a paper towel.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl; add beer and sparkling water. Stir until batter just combined.
  • Working in batches, dip bell pepper, onion, and zucchini slices into batter, draining excess; fry in preheated oil until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer vegetables to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Dip chicken breasts into remaining batter and fry in oil until golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drain excess oil on paper towels.

Tips:

  • To make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the batter, use a fork to dip each piece of chicken into the batter, then let the excess batter drip off.
  • To get a crispy coating, fry the chicken in hot oil (350°F/175°C). Don't overcrowd the pan; this will cause the oil temperature to drop and the chicken won't cook evenly.
  • To check if the chicken is cooked through, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The internal temperature should be 165°F/74°C.
  • Serve the chicken hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as honey mustard, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.

Conclusion:

Beer-battered chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a casual meal or party. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a crispy, golden-brown chicken dish that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy chicken, give beer-battered chicken a try.
