GLUTEN FREE KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN RECIPES

Steps:

• Blitz the tofu, soy milk, miso, Marmite, onion powder, garlic powder, 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp white pepper in a food processor until smooth.
• Tip into a bowl and add the wheat gluten and pea protein or protein powder. Mix to form a dough. Once the dough has come together, give it a really good knead, stretching and tearing for 10-15 mins. It will be ready once the dough feels springy.
• Pour the vegetable stock into a pan. Bring to a simmer. Flatten out the seitan to a thickness of 1cm and chop into chicken-breast-sized chunks. Simmer these in the stock for 20 mins, covered with a lid, then allow to cool in the stock. Ideally, do this the day before and leave to chill in the fridge. The seitan chunks can also be frozen if you wish. When you’re ready to use the seitan in a recipe, pat it dry with kitchen paper then chop or tear into smaller pieces before cooking, if you like.

Steps:

• Place chicken livers in a colander and rinse gently but well. Let drain for a few minutes.
• Remove from colander, cut and trim any connective tissue or fat if desired.
• Place livers in a small bowl.
• Add the buttermilk. Stir gently to coat the livers.
• Add salt.
• Add black pepper.
• Stir gently and set aside for 10-15 minutes.
• Place flour in a small bowl or tray.
• Remove the livers from the buttermilk, shaking each one gently to remove excess liquid.
• Place the livers in the flour, turning gently to fully coat the liver.
• One at a time, dip the livers back in the buttermilk, then place back into the flour.
• Toss gently to coat with flour again.
• Remove from flour, place on foil lined pan. Let rest for 10-15 minutes.
• Add oil to cast iron skillet to a depth of about one inch.
• Bring oil up to 350F degrees for frying.
• Gently lower livers, one at a time, into the hot oil.
• Use a splatter screen while frying if available as the livers will often pop and splatter while cooking.
• Fry liver until lightly browned on the bottom, then flip over, frying about 2-3 minutes per side.
• When done, remove from skillet and place on a brown paper bag or wire rack to drain.
• Sprinkle lightly with additional salt and black pepper if desired for added flavor.
• Serve warm if possible. They cool quickly.
• Enjoy!
