Ingredients

• 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.75 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 pieces chicken breasts
• 1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 large egg
• 0.25 cup milk
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

Add the chilled and cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Pour in the buttermilk and gently stir until the dough begins to come together. Avoid over-mixing.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it to about 1-inch thickness. Use a round cutter to cut out biscuits.

Step 6

Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the tops are golden.

Step 7

While the biscuits are baking, slice the chicken breasts horizontally to form four thin fillets. Season with salt and black pepper.

Step 8

In a bowl, mix gluten-free breadcrumbs with paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper. In another bowl, beat together the egg and milk.

Step 9

Dip each chicken fillet into the egg mixture, then coat with breadcrumb mixture. Ensure even coating.

Step 10

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the chicken fillets for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 11

Split warm biscuits in half and place a piece of fried chicken between each biscuit to create sandwiches.

Step 12

Serve immediately while warm, optionally with your favorite sauces or toppings like lettuce, tomato, or homemade dressing.
