Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 2 cups Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces, approximately 1 inch in size.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well to create a seasoned flour mixture.

Step 3

In another bowl, crack the eggs and add the water. Beat the eggs until well combined.

Step 4

Place the gluten-free breadcrumbs in a separate shallow dish.

Step 5

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep saucepan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).

Step 6

Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, coating them evenly. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 7

Dip the flour-coated chicken pieces into the egg mixture, allowing any excess egg to drip off.

Step 8

Roll the chicken pieces in the gluten-free breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere the crumbs to all sides.

Step 9

Carefully place a few chicken pieces at a time into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 10

Fry the chicken bites for 3-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 11

Repeat the process with the remaining chicken pieces, ensuring the oil returns to temperature between batches.

Step 12

Serve the gluten-free crispy chicken mini bites hot with your favorite dipping sauce, if desired.
