Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breast
• 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
• 4 Gluten-free burger buns
• 4 Lettuce leaves
• 1 large Tomato
• 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Prepare three shallow bowls: one with gluten-free flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with gluten-free breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Pound the chicken breasts lightly to ensure even thickness.

Step 4

Dip each piece of chicken first into the flour, shaking off excess, then into the egg, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even coating.

Step 5

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Cook the chicken breasts in the skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to a baking sheet.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 8

While the chicken is baking, slice the tomato and prepare the lettuce leaves.

Step 9

Toast the gluten-free buns lightly if desired.

Step 10

Assemble the burgers by spreading a tablespoon of mayonnaise on each half of the toasted buns. Place a cooked chicken breast on the bottom half of each bun.

Step 11

Add a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato on top of the chicken.

Step 12

Close the burgers with the top half of the buns and serve immediately.
