What is Gluten?

Gluten is an element in grains, namely wheat, that is developed when elasticity is introduced in a batter or dough. It is always present in wheat flour. Gluten is said to have no nutritional value and is nonessential in a diet. People with gluten sensitivity commonly have Celiacs Disease, which is the inability for the body to process gluten. Using other flours such as almond flour or rice flour as opposed to wheat flours eliminate gluten content in a recipe.

Some have sensitivity to gluten, and others do not. Pay attention to your body and see what foods make you feel good after eating. For more gluten-free recipes, try my Creamy Avocado Pasta Zoodle Recipe.

How to Make Gluten Free Oven Fried Chicken Tenders

Begin by preheating the oven to 450 degrees. In a medium size bowl mix together Bisquick, cheese, paprika and salt together. Line a baking sheet with non-stick foil. Dip chicken into eggs then toss in Bisquick mixture. To avoid uncoated fingerprint spots on the chicken I usually shake the egg covered tender around in the bowl, then use a dry hand to shovel the Bisquick® mixture on bare spots. Place it on the baking sheet. Repeat process for the 9 remaining tenders.

Drizzle melted butter over the chicken (about a ½ tsp on each). Bake for 8 minutes. Flip chicken and bake for an additional 8 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in the center.
