Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 cloves minced garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.75 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups vegetable oil
• 8 pieces wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place them in a bowl.

Step 2

Add gluten-free soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and black pepper to the chicken. Mix well to coat evenly.

Step 3

Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Step 4

In a shallow dish, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, gluten-free breadcrumbs, paprika, and salt.

Step 5

In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until well blended.

Step 6

Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers, about four to five pieces per skewer.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Dip each chicken skewer first into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, then coat with the flour and breadcrumb mixture.

Step 9

Carefully place the coated skewers into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Fry for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through.

Step 10

Remove the skewers from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 11

Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
