Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cup Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 0.25 cup Milk
  • 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
  • 0.5 cup Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. This will ensure they cook evenly.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine the gluten-free flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

Step 3

In a separate shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.

Step 4

In a third shallow dish, place the gluten-free breadcrumbs.

Step 5

Dredge each chicken breast first in the flour mixture, ensuring it's coated evenly. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 6

Dip the chicken in the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.

Step 7

Finally, coat the chicken in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs to the chicken.

Step 8

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 9

Once the oil is hot, place the chicken breasts into the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd it. You may need to cook in batches.

Step 10

Fry the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).

Step 11

Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 12

Serve hot and enjoy your crispy gluten-free pan-fried chicken.
