Problems with Chicken/Meat Edge Layers (Heather ever heard of this?

OK, so I have noticed a very annoying trend that is causing me problems, and is VERY hard to avoid.
I eat Chicken Breast/Fish that is skinless, boneless. I salted/pepper/parpika/parsely it, then put it in the oven at 350 to bake. OR I put it on a pan, and sautee it but just with Pam (which has trivial amounts of fat).
It comes out, and it has a crust/skin/caramelization layer.
When I eat it, I feel bloated and have a reaction after.
BUT, when I get canned chicken or order steamed shrimp/fish, I get NO REACTION whatsoever.
Is there ANY identifiable reason as to why such would give me issues?
What I do not get/understand is why I am getting reactions from baked chicken, but not canned chicken, do you have clue why? The same thing happens with fish. I had grilled tuna on a grill and was fine, then I had tuna cooked on a pan with pam, it had the caramelized layer, and I felt awful after.
Why is this happening? Have you Heather EVER heard of this, I mean we are talking 99% FF meat with not even smart balance added!
I can't really "steam" chicken or ground meat, I do not know how I am supposed to cope when it seems I cannot: -Bake/Sautee food!!!
Would this lead you all to believe my IBS and stomach are so sensitive that dieting more is not going to solve it and I should look towards something like hypno? I mean if my gut is this sensitive, how can dieting ever pay off?

Nonenzymatic browning or browning of foods such as meat is similar to caramelization. It is not known to be a IBS trigger. It is likely one of those individual IBS mysteries.

I thought this sensitivity for 'crust' on meat/chicken (even potatoes etc) is one of the most known triggers for a sensitive stomach.
Another diet I tried also suggests this (dr Truelove diet), it tells to cook all your meat/chicken (for a few weeks/months). Or perhaps on a very low fire in the pan, and cut the hard edges.. (but it tastes like crap!)
So I don't think it's a really abnormal or 'extreme' sensitivity you have(in IBS/functional GI disorder-way). A lot of sensitivities are not (YET!) chemically/biologically understood I guess. (The FODMAP trouble I find much more abnormal!! )
Luckely I personally do not seem to have much trouble with it, but I am a bit cautious with it.
