GLUTEN-FREE FRIED CHICKEN
When I was teenager, my brother invited one of his friends over for dinner. His taciturn friend didn't say much through most of the evening. When my mother lay down a platter of golden-brown fried chicken on the table, however, he perked up. When he bit into a drumstick of juicy chicken and crisp crust, he grunted. And then he pounded the table. You don't need gluten to get that kind of reaction. Here's a fried chicken recipe sure to please even the most difficult member of your family.

Steps:
- Preparing to cook: Heat the oven to 450 degrees F. Lay down a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet.
- Making the batter: Whisk together the buttermilk, paprika, garlic power, and onion powder. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and stir.
- Making the flour: Whisk together a pinch each of salt and pepper, flour mix, and smoked paprika.
- Dipping the chicken: Set a large cast-iron skillet on medium-high heat. As the pan is heating, line up the chicken, the bowl of batter, and the spiced flour. Pour the oil into the hot pan.
- Frying the chicken: When the oil has reached 375 degrees F, dip a piece of chicken in the batter. Shake off any excess liquid. Dip the chicken in the flour and coat it entirely. Place the chicken in the hot oil. Repeat with all the pieces of chicken.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. You can always do this in two batches.
- Flip the chicken pieces when the bottoms are nicely browned. When both sides are browned, put the chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Finishing the chicken: When all the chicken has been browned and laid on the baking sheet, put the baking sheet in the oven. Cook the chicken until the legs have reached an internal temperature of 185 degrees F and the breasts measure 155 degrees F.
- Pour all the flours into a large container. (Restaurant supply stores sell large plastic containers that fit this purpose well. You could also use a large glass jar.) Shake and shake and shake harder until all the flours have become one color.
FEARLESS "FRIED" CHICKEN
This is taken from Chatelaine's "Quickies Chicken" recipe book. We make this fairly regularly, and I have to say this has all of the flavour of traditional fried chicken with a fraction of the calories.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425F (220C).
- Whisk the egg white and buttermilk together, then pour into a pie plate.
- Measure all dry ingredients into a paper or plastic bag and mix.
- Dip one breast (or whatever) into the buttermilk mixture and place in the seasoning bag. Close top and gently shake to evenly coat. Place on a baking sheet with shallow sides. Repeat with remaining chicken. Discard the remainder of the seasoning.
- Using a pastry brush, evenly brush the seasoning-coated chicken with the vegetable oil. This amount of oil is essential for a crispy crust.
- Bake uncovered until crisp and golden - approx 40-45 minutes.
