Gluten Free Raising Canes / Zaxbys

• servings: 4 servings
• total time: 1 hour

Ingredients

8 cups vegetable oil, plus more as needed

1 1/4 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces

2 large eggs

1 1/4 cups cornstarch

1 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)

1/2 cup gluten-free mayonnaise

1/4 cup gluten-free tomato ketchup

2 teaspoons gluten-free Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Gluten free fries

Directions

Cook the fries in the oven while everything else is going

Add 2 inches of vegetable oil to a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. Heat to 375 degrees over medium-high.

Beat eggs in a pie dish or wide, shallow bowl. Add cornstarch to a second pie dish or bowl. Using your hands or tongs, transfer half of the marinated chicken to the egg mixture and toss until fully coated. Remove from the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip back into the dish, and transfer to the cornstarch. Toss until fully coated.

Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer chicken into the hot oil, stir to separate the pieces and fry until golden brown and fully cooked, about 6 minutes. Transfer the chicken with the slotted spoon to a large paper towel-lined bowl. Sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt.

Repeat with the remaining chicken. Allow the oil to return to 375 degrees before each batch.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, gluten-free Worcestershire sauce, ground black pepper, Cajun seasoning, and garlic powder.
