Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups gluten-free Rice Chex cereal
1 cup Amy's Gluten-Free Mix or store-bought gluten-free flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 large eggs
1 pound chicken tenderloins
3 cups vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Using your hands, crush the Chex into a large bowl, and add the gluten-free mix and the salt and pepper. Pour this mixture into a large roasting pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, and then dump the chicken pieces into the eggs.
  • Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet to 350°F. Place a brown paper bag on the counter next to where you are working so you can easily put the chicken on it to drain when you are done frying.
  • One piece at a time, dredge the chicken in the flour coating. I like to really press the coating onto the chicken so it gets a super crunchy bite. Start by frying one piece at a time. Remove from the oil after 3 to 4 minutes, when the tenders are golden brown. Place on the brown paper bag. Repeat, frying no more than 4 tenders at a time.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes and green beans.

These chicken tenders were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

These chicken tenders were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.
