Gluten Free Crispy Baked Chicken Tenders

Before my daughter was diagnosed with Celiac, she spent several years being misdiagnosed as having IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). Many of the symptoms including pain, nausea, bloating and headache are the same. Either way, it’s no fun. Often, keeping a food diary can help, allowing people to see the foods that triggered an episode with IBS. A new approach is the low-FODMAP diet. FODMAP stands for Fermentable Oligosaccharides,Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, and Polyols. These are a group of carbohydrates found within foods, which may make IBS symptoms worse. (Note: Before beginning any diet, check with your doctor.) Recently, we tested some recipes created by Patsy Catsos, a registered dietitian who focuses on GI issues, designed to please everyone in the family. Patsy is the author of Flavor Without FODMAPs Cookbook and her Crispy Baked Chicken Tenders were a hit in our family.

A recipe created by Patsy Catsos, RD, for VSL #3.
Ingredients
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
    1 1/2 pounds chicken tenders or boneless chicken breasts sliced into 1/2 inch strips
  • 1/2 cup corn flakes, crushed (I used gluten free)
  • 1/4 teaspoon saltĀ 
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Measure the olive oil into a zipper-top plastic bag. Add the chicken pieces, seal the bag, and manipulate it until the chicken is evenly coated with oil. Combine the remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Transfer to the zipper-tp[ bag; seal the bag, leaving plenty of airspace inside. Shake until the chicken pieces are coated with crumbs. Spread the chicken pieces in a single layer on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 30 to 45 minutes, or until crispy.

In addition to using the FODMAPs , finding the right probiotic can help.
