GLUTEN-FREE CHICKEN NUGGETS
My 2-year-old was diagnosed with Celiac. After experimenting with several failed chicken nugget recipes, I finally came up with one the whole family loves. This is a mild-tasting chicken nugget designed for a 2-year-old. Some additional seasoning added to the Chex® should give it a more 'grown up' flavor.

Steps:
- Blend cereal in a blender or food processor until it has the consistency of bread crumbs; pour into a bowl.
- Beat eggs in a separate bowl until smooth. Pour rice flour into a third bowl.
- Dredge chicken pieces in the rice flour, dip in beaten egg, and then press into the cereal to coat. Keep breaded chicken on a large plate until all are finished, but do not stack.
- Pour enough oil into a large skillet to just cover the bottom and heat over medium-high heat.
- Cook chicken nuggets in hot oil until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:
- To ensure the chicken nuggets are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, use a combination of almond flour and tapioca starch as the coating. Almond flour provides a nutty flavor, while tapioca starch helps create a crispy crust.
- For extra flavor, add a blend of seasonings to the coating, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt and pepper. You can also use your favorite herbs and spices.
- If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake the chicken nuggets in a preheated oven at 400°F for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve the chicken nuggets with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, barbecue sauce, or honey mustard.
