📌 Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Craving crispy fried chicken but need it gluten-free? This recipe gives you golden, crunchy, mouthwatering chicken without any wheat flour. Made with simple pantry ingredients and perfect for family dinners, parties, or satisfying comfort food cravings!

📝 Ingredients (Serves 4)

For the chicken:

  • 1 kg (2.2 lbs) chicken pieces (drumsticks, thighs, or wings)
  • 1 cup buttermilk (or dairy-free milk + 1 tbsp lemon juice)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika

For the coating:

  • 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup cornstarch (makes it extra crispy!)
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp cayenne (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For frying:

  • Neutral oil (like canola or sunflower), enough for deep frying

🍳 Instructions

Step 1: Marinate the Chicken

In a large bowl, combine buttermilk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Add chicken and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour (or overnight for best flavor).

Step 2: Prepare the Coating

In another bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, cornstarch, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper.

Step 3: Coat the Chicken

Remove chicken from marinade. Shake off excess liquid, then dredge in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere well. Let coated pieces rest on a rack for 10 minutes.

Step 4: Fry the Chicken

Heat oil in a deep pan to 175°C (350°F). Fry chicken in batches for 12–15 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to check for internal temp of 75°C (165°F).

🔥 Tip: Don’t overcrowd the pan—fry in batches for even cooking.

Step 5: Drain and Serve

Drain on paper towels or a wire rack. Serve hot with dipping sauce, coleslaw, or gluten-free biscuits.
