My family used to love chicken flavored Rice a Roni- but now that they need to be gluten-free, I can't find anything comparable. is there a brand that is gluten-free, or does anyone have a recipe to make from scatch?

There is a chicken rice dish from Country Crock sides, it's something to just heat up. There are also some box mixes from Lundberg Farms.

you can also cook rice with chicken broth and add spices. (take a glance at the rice a roni package to find out what they use. ;-) )

I usually make my own, I have made it in the crock pot before and I comes out wonderful and I have also made my own by frying. I will see if I can dig up one of the recipes for you.

But the pan fried one, you can add all your own vegtables and put in what your family likes vs. what they could do without. When I find those recipies, I will post them up to you.

Happy Cooking :D

I make chicken fried rice from scratch all the time. It's best to use day old rice and contrary to all the recipes, don't used pre-cooked chicken, use fresh chicken, dark meat (legs or thighs) is supposed to be better.

For one big batch you will need:

a big bowl of cooked rice

2 green onions

1 egg

a couple of tablespoons of green beans, peas or whatever veg

and 2 chicken thighs

soy sauce

Dice the chicken thighs and put in a bowl. Add 1/2 tsp each sugar, salt, cornstarch and sesame oil. This is not a marinade, the chicken should just be lightly coated.

Heat the wok with a little oil (I use canola) and fry the egg. You can slice it afterward, or scramble it in the wok. When the egg is done, remove from wok and set aside.

Stir fry the beans, peas or veg of your choice until heated through, remove and set aside.

Stir fry the rice until heated through, remove and set aside.

Stir fry the chicken until cooked, then add the egg, rice, veg and green onions and soy sauce to taste, stir fry until it's all heated through and nicely mixed up.

Eat and enjoy.

My gluten-free son loves this. This is his lunch on "fun lunch" day when all the other kids get pizza or Arby's.

It's time consuming with all the cutting and cooking and setting aside, but it's very tasty. I have also cooked a big wok full and then divided it into freezer zip bags so when my son has a craving I can just thaw it out rather than cooking it all fresh.

This recipe was given to me by a Thai girl at work.

You cut in small pieces and fry up chicken breast is a little bit of olive or peanut oil. Take chicken out and fry up green onion, peas or brocolli, egg fy and then and cooked rice. Add a small amount of gluten-free fish sauce and gluten-free tamari or soy sauce, fry them all together and add the fried chicken breast and then serve.

Delicious.

      @Mynx, how long have you been gluten-free? I ask because many newly diagnosed celiacs react to many things, and often think their reactions are caused by gluten, when in fact, they are really caused by a combination of a sensitive gut due to damage, as well as additional food intolerance/leaky gut issues to other foods which may be temporary until their villi heal.

      Many major brands of distilled vinegar in the USA, including Heinz white vinegar, are typically made from corn. In the United States, corn is a common and cost-effective raw material used in the production of distilled white vinegar. The process involves fermenting the sugars derived from corn into alcohol, which is then further fermented into acetic acid to produce vinegar. Distillation follows, which purifies the liquid and removes impurities, including any residual proteins or allergens. While the source of the vinegar (e.g., corn) is not always explicitly stated on the label, corn-derived vinegar is widely used in the food industry due to its neutral flavor and affordability. For individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease, distilled vinegar made from corn is generally considered safe, as the distillation process effectively removes gluten proteins. However, if you have concerns about cross-contamination or specific sensitivities, it’s always a good idea to contact the manufacturer directly to confirm the sourcing and production practices. Heinz, for example, has stated that their distilled white vinegar is gluten-free and safe for those with celiac disease, but verifying this information can provide additional peace of mind. The belief that distilled vinegar is gluten-free is rooted in the scientific understanding that gluten proteins, which are large and complex molecules, are generally too big to pass through the distillation process. Distillation involves heating a liquid to create vapor, which is then condensed back into a liquid form, leaving behind larger molecules like gluten proteins. However, the concern about cross-contamination arises from the possibility that gluten-containing ingredients may have been present in the liquid prior to distillation. While the distillation process itself is highly effective at removing gluten, the equipment used in production could potentially introduce trace amounts of gluten if not thoroughly cleaned between batches. For most individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, distilled vinegar is considered safe because the gluten content, if any, is typically below the threshold that would trigger a reaction. However, for those with extreme gluten intolerance or celiac disease, even trace amounts can cause adverse effects. This is why some individuals, like yourself, may choose to avoid commercially produced distilled vinegar and opt for alternatives like apple cider vinegar, which can be verified as gluten-free. The meticulous process of researching ingredients and preparing homemade products, such as ketchup, is indeed challenging but crucial for maintaining health and avoiding gluten exposure. It’s important to note that regulatory standards for gluten-free labeling vary by region, and in many places, products labeled "gluten-free" must contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten, which is considered safe for the vast majority of people with celiac disease. Nonetheless, individual sensitivity levels can vary, and your approach highlights the importance of personalized dietary management for those with severe gluten intolerance.

      I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (LC) for quite a few years, so I have been gluten-free and DF.  I would like to get tested for Celiac Disease because of the possibility of cross contamination and colon cancer.  And if you were hospitalized and didn't have a celiac diagnosis you could not get gluten-free food, I don't know if that is true or not.  Also because there is chance of colon cancer so I want to know if I have Celiac Disease and need to be on very restrictive diet.  The only testing I did was a sigmoid scope and Enter Lab but no gene testing.  I know I can go back to eating gluten for a few months, but I would worry you would have to stay home for the few months while getting gluten.  What other options do I have?  Should I do the gene testing?  Maybe through Entero Lab?  Any other tests?  How important is it to have Celiac diagnosed? Thank you! Barb

      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification.  In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution. Therefore, the condensate should be free of gluten, no matter if there was gluten in the original solution. The explanation contained in the second sentence I quoted from your post would not seem to square with the physics of the distillation process. Unless, that is, I misunderstood what you were trying to explain.

      No they do not contradict each other. Just like frying oil can be cross contaminated even though the oil doesn't contain the luten protein. The same is the same for a distilled vinegar or spirit which originally came from a gluten source. Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a PhD in biochemistry or friends that do and access to a lab?  If not, saying you don't understand is one thing anything else can be dangerous to others.
