Baked Gluten Free Chicken Tenders

March 3, 2020 By Channing 2 Comments

These baked gluten free chicken tenders are so delicious and taste just like they came from a restaurant. Made with almond flour and a secret ingredient they will quickly become a family favorite! These are a go-to meal in our home and the kids LOVE them! 

Our entire family loves these chicken tenders for dinner! They are the number 1 meal requested in our home and there are never any leftovers. They are a quick and easy dinner and go great with green beans and this delicious salad!

Healthy Baked Chicken Strips

Family Favorite Chicken Recipe

I recently had my entire family over for dinner. I whipped up several recipes for everyone to try and although they loved it all, these chicken fingers were gone before I even sat down for my first bite. I am taking that as a sign that they are delicious! 

It could be that I have a secret ingredient that takes these chicken tenders to a whole new level but it could also be that I am just an amazing cook. Ha!

This particular recipe calls for chicken tenders but you could also cube up chicken breasts to make nuggets as well. I do this when I am feeding an extra large crowd and need them to stretch a bit further among the crowd. 

I have tried several different gluten free chicken tender recipes from the internet but they were never just right. I made some tweaks and developed this recipe. It is definitely one I am super proud of. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Gluten Free Chicken Tenders Almond Flour

Healthy Baked Chicken Strips

When you eat these chicken strips the best thing is that you do not have to feel guilty for eating them. They are coated in an almond flour mixer and baked. Don’t worry though, this recipe doesn’t taste healthy!

2 Step Breading Process

Set up a station with 2 pie pans. One pan will have whisked seasoned eggs and the other will have the almond flour mix. Dip each chicken tender in the egg and then the almond flour until they are well coated. 

Baking

Place coated chicken fingers on a lined cookie sheet. Bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes. Remove when chicken is golden brown.

These baked gluten free chicken tenders are so delicious and taste just like they came from a restaurant. Made with almond flour and a secret ingredient they will quickly become a family favorite! These are a go-to meal in our home and the kids LOVE them! 

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1-2 lbs chicken tenders
  • 1 cup Almond Flour
  • 1/2 cup Tapioca Flour
  • 1 package Hidden Valley Ranch Dip Package
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 3 eggs whisked
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a shallow dish or pie pan, whisk eggs and salt and pepper. In another pie pan add almond flour, tapioca flour, ranch dip packet and paprika. Whisk all dry ingredients together.
  3. Dip each piece of chicken in the egg wash and then in the flour mixture making sure that each piece is coated evenly. (I find it easiest to use one fork for the egg mixture and one for the dry ingredients)
  4. Bake 20-25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

Notes

*To make sure that your chicken is seasoned well, "taste test" the dry mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste.

The kit comes with 2 pre-packed quarts of ice cream, 3 toppings, an entire can of whipped cream and cherries! Ice
cream for dinner will now be a weekly staple. The kids are definitely not complaining! It’s a fun day with a Sundae!

Instagram post 17850899390014309 Disney is challenging us to share our first pictures with characters! I had to join in the fun and it was the best trip down memory lane. Disney has been threaded throughout my entire life. I pulled a few of my most favorite memories over the years. From partying in the streets during the most epic dance party and meeting our most favorite princesses to me being a kid at Disney myself. Oh, I also had to add a picture of Cinderella’s Castle. She really is the most beautiful cast member of them all! 
@waltdisneyworld we miss you more and more each day. You’ve brought us joy beyond words and we cannot wait for the day when we get to walk down Main Street USA again!
