Cut the chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces, approximately 1 inch in size.
In a medium bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well to create a seasoned flour mixture.
In another bowl, crack the eggs and add the water. Beat the eggs until well combined.
Place the gluten-free breadcrumbs in a separate shallow dish.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep saucepan or deep fryer to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, coating them evenly. Shake off any excess flour.
Dip the flour-coated chicken pieces into the egg mixture, allowing any excess egg to drip off.
Roll the chicken pieces in the gluten-free breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere the crumbs to all sides.
Carefully place a few chicken pieces at a time into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry the chicken bites for 3-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Repeat the process with the remaining chicken pieces, ensuring the oil returns to temperature between batches.
Serve the gluten-free crispy chicken mini bites hot with your favorite dipping sauce, if desired.
