Wow, this fried chicken is wonderful! I followed the recipe exactly, except I baked the chicken after coating it instead of frying. This lowered the amount of fat per serving considerably. The crushed Chex coating came out crunchy and really yummy. No one guessed it was gluten free. Thank you JanaBird, for sharing your recipe.
