Ingredients
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 egg
- 1 cup club soda

Directions
Step 1
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, about 1 inch in size.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat the egg and then whisk in the club soda until well combined.
Step 4
Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
Step 5
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the right temperature is maintained.
Step 6
Dip each piece of chicken into the batter, ensuring it is completely coated.
Step 7
Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil, frying in batches to prevent overcrowding.
Step 8
Fry each batch for approximately 4-5 minutes or until the chicken bites are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 9
