Help! Gluten Free/dairy Free Chicken Parmigiana

Hi everyone! I am new to the forum. I was diagnosed with celiac disease September 2007. I am craving chicken parmigiana and was wondering if anyone knew what would be a good choice of gluten free flour to make the breaded chicken? Also, what are the best brands of soy cheese? I've got the sauce covered. Amy's family marinara sauce is delicious!

thanks!

Actually, my mother bought Erewhon gluten free rice krispy cereal and crunched that up for the coating on some fried chicken, it was AWESOME. Can't help you with the cheese, I'm not dairy free. You might try the cashew 'parmesan' cheese, not really a good idea to go crazy with the soy right now.

Vegan Gourmet comes in a mozarella style.

For breading we use several options. Gillian's makes plain and italian. My husband says they are hard but I don't care that much. We also process EnerG tapioca loaf in the food processor and freeze for a panko style fresh bread brumbs. Use straight from the freezer. The result after frying is a lighter, crisp coating.

Sorry I can't help with the cheese--I'm dairy and soy free <_<

But....our favorite chicken coating is instant potato flakes (I use Potato Buds) with a generous amount of garlic powder, salt and pepper. Dip the chicken in a beaten egg first--if you can't do eggs, you can use rice milk or even water.

Welcome to the board and enjoy your chicken parm :)

While vegan gourmet is the best vegan cheese i've seen, I stronly recomend you taste it before cooking with it. Taste it cold and melted. I've ruined otherwise good meals by adding one ingredient that I coulndt stand the taste of. I have liked the soy parmesan for adding some cheesy flavor, but . . . that gooey thing is just hard to replace.

There are lots of things you can coat chicken with, tho. You can make or buy gluten-free bread and crumb it yourself, I've used the 'veggie chips' in the blender, but they give a slightly green tinge. For myself, recently, I've just been using corn meal (locally stone ground, admittedly) and I was suprised how nice it was.

Good luck.

I always coat my baked chicken with crushed pork rinds, I use the Cuissinart to grind them up. Learned this from Atkins Diet. It may sound wierd, but it tastes better to me than other coatings I've tried.

      Enegy level extremely low

      Hello Scott, I did lose weight at the beginning of diagnosis and I know that it will take time to put on the weight I did lose. I think I have no appetite because this has been a roller coaster of emotions and a Big change on my body and its out of whack mentally and pysically. I think I am just depressed to be honest.

      How long can symptoms take to appear?

      It's easy to forget that it's not only the concentration of gluten in a given food item that's significant but also the total amount of gluten we consume over a period of time. This thing and that thing may meet the gluten-free requirement of not exceeding 20 ppm but if we eat enough of those things in a reasonably short amount of time it can have a cumulative...

      How long can symptoms take to appear?

      Hi! I try to steer clear of dairy and I cut out oats at the same time I did gluten products. It may be that something I had recently that was labeled as gluten-free contained oats. I am just so confused as to why I didn’t react when I know I ate wheat flour (breaded fries) but then reacted to something else 9 days later. Maybe you’re right and that it was...

      How long can symptoms take to appear?

      Welcome to the forum, @SamClaire! I am reasonably sure that after 9 days any danger of a single gluten exposure reaction would have been long gone. If in fact the reaction you are speaking of is due to gluten, it is more likely a cumulative effect of small amounts of gluten having crept into your diet over time. Perhaps some food product you have been...

      How long can symptoms take to appear?

      Hi, I’m brand new to this website but I was diagnosed 14 years ago. I am just now getting over a particularly bad flare up that lasted a full 7 days. I’ve been trying to figure out what caused it and all I can think of is I know I accidentally ate gluten (specifically wheat flour) 9 days before my symptoms started. Could it have taken 9 days for my ...

This thing and that thing may meet the gluten-free requirement of not exceeding 20 ppm but if we eat enough of those things in a reasonably short amount of time it can have a cumulative effect because our bodies aren't given enough time to clear the gluten we have already consumed. Just curious. Did you know the fries were wheat breaded when you ate them?

      Welcome to the forum, @SamClaire! I am reasonably sure that after 9 days any danger of a single gluten exposure reaction would have been long gone. If in fact the reaction you are speaking of is due to gluten, it is more likely a cumulative effect of small amounts of gluten having crept into your diet over time. Perhaps some food product you have been using that was once gluten free is no more. Companies can and do change their formulations over time so it may be wise to take inventory of what is in your cupboard and what your are purchasing and check closely the ingredient labels and the allergen statements. It is also possible that the reaction you mention is caused by something else that resembles a gluten reaction. Are you still consuming oats and dairy?
