Gluten Free Chicken Strips With Honey Mustard Dip
So, I don't usually like to eat or feed my family fried foods but you gotta have chicken strips every now and then right? Especially the kids. You're not a kid unless you eat chicken strips. Besides, it's not like we can go to the drive thru or a restaurant and order the kids chicken strips. They're packed full of gluten and casein-the 2 things Lance can't have. But let me tell you these chicken strips are the real thing. Crispy on the outside, moist and tender on the inside and taste just as good as any restaurant! Bold, I know. But true. I've tried frying chicken strips before and could never get it right until I bought a candy thermometer to know how hot my oil was. It cost less than $10 at Wal-Mart and I suggest you invest in one. And while your at it a meat thermometer has greatly helped as well. I've never tried this recipe with anything other than almond flour and cornstarch, but I know many people don't like ordering their flour on-line. I'd imagine a variety of gluten free flours could replace the almond flour. Gluten Free Chicken Strips: 10 to 15 boneless, skinless chicken tenderloins or strips 1 C soymilk or milk alternative 1 tsp. distilled white vinegar 2 C blanched almond flour, divided 2 C cornstarch, divided 6 tsp. seasoned salt, divided canola oil, for frying 4. In a large bowl, mix 1 C blanched almond flour, 1 C cornstarch, and 3 tsp. seasoned salt. 5. Take the chicken out of the refrigerator, if you haven't already. Scoop out 2-3 tbsp. of the milk mixture from the dish the chicken is in and mix into the flour mixture. This makes the flour form little balls and clusters which adhere to the "buttermilk" soaked chicken. This results in crunchy chicken strips-yum! 6. At this point you need to check the temperature of your oil. If you throw in a pinch of flour it should sizzle. The oil should be 300- 325 degrees. Not too hot because you don't want your chicken to burn. My oil is perfect over medium heat. 7. Using tongs, coat 1/2 of the chicken strips in the flour mixture and place on a plate. When 1/2 of the chicken is coated place them in the heated oil. 8. Allow to cook or 3-5 minutes per side. My chicken was pretty large and took an additional 2 minutes per side. Your strips are done when they are a nice dark golden brown and the internal temperate is 165 degrees. 9. Mix together another cup of almond flour, cornstarch, and 3 more tsp. of seasoned salt. Repeat steps 7 and 8 with the remaining chicken strips.
