INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
1/2 cup low-fat Buttermilk (122g)
1/3 cup Whole-Wheat Breadcrumbs (30g)
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese (10g)
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, pour the buttermilk. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to season the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk, ensuring it is fully submerged. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
In another bowl, combine the whole-wheat breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, paprika, and garlic powder.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off. Dredge the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. For extra crispiness, lightly spray the chicken with a bit of cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Crispy Oven-Baked Buttermilk Chicken with a side of fresh greens or steamed veggies.
