I am a fan of gluten-free nuggets, when they are crispy and tender at the same time. This time, I propose not one but two recipes of gluten-free nuggets to test.

So you’re going to have a choice. I obviously tested the two that I really liked. I will however have a little preference with the second recipe, the one with almond flour. Strange no? Believe me, it is really super good. It’s up to you to see according to your tastes, and what you have in your cupboards.

Recipe number 1 is easier, faster and egg-free. Recipe number 2 requires a little more time, but it’s still very reasonable!

So here we go!

Ingredients

For recipe number 1 and for 2 people you will need:

  • 2 chicken breasts, cut into pieces (the size of a nugget, you choose whether it is a large piece, or a smaller one to make like small nugget bites)
  • 85g gluten-free cornflakes
  • 50 g Parmesan powder
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 half teaspoon paprika powder
  • 45g butter
  • 1 tbsp vegetable milk

For recipe number 2 and for 4 people this time (this allows you to have different amounts, to readjust according to the number of people you have at home, or the number of nuggets you want!)

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 100 g almond powder
  • 4 slices gluten-free bread
  • 50 g Parmesan powder
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 85 g rice flour
  • 3 whole eggs
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Preparation

For the first recipe:

STEP 1: Preheat your oven to 190°. Then, crush the cornflakes. To do this, do not mix them in a blender (it will be too complicated to use afterwards), but rather put them in a bag that closes, and crush them with a pastry roll. This will be your breadcrumbs.

STEP 2: Take 2 bowls: in one melt the butter then mix it with the milk. In the other, mix with a spoon the crushed cornflakes, parmesan, paprika, salt.

STEP 3: Let’s move on to the “technical” part of this recipe. Take a piece of chicken, dip it in the butter/milk mixture, then in the cornflakes mixture.

STEP 4: When all your chicken pieces are ready, put them on a baking sheet, and cook them on each side between 8 and 9 min. You must watch when cooking so that it does not become all black! The cooking time also varies depending on the size of your chicken pieces.

And voila, for recipe number 1!


For the second recipe:

STEP 1: Preheat your oven to 200°. Then cut the chicken breasts, as in recipe #1.

STEP 2: cut your gluten-free bread slices, and mix them to obtain your gluten-free breadcrumbs. Then mix the almond powder and your breadcrumbs that you will put in the oven for 7 minutes so that the whole grill a little bit.

STEP 3: When your breadcrumbs have well toasted, put it in a hollow plate and add salt, parmesan, and olive oil. Mix everything well.

STEP 4: In another hollow plate, put your rice flour, then in a third, the 3 beaten eggs.

STEP 5: Set your oven to 230°. On your baking sheet, oil with your vegetable oil.

STEP 6: Let’s go for the assembly: take a piece of chicken, dip it in flour, then in eggs, then in breadcrumbs. Do each step so that all the ingredients are well incorporated into your chicken. Repeat for each piece of chicken.

STEP 7: Cook between 6 and 7 minutes on each side (watch out, the cooking time may vary depending on the size of your chicken pieces).

So, not so complicated right? Humm I can’t wait to eat these delicious gluten-free nuggets again!
