INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 tsp Fresh Thyme (chopped)
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary (chopped)
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the buttermilk with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and the chopped herbs (parsley, thyme, and rosemary). Stir well to infuse the flavors.
Place the chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound it to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
Submerge the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture, ensuring it is fully coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a separate shallow dish, spread out the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, then dredge it evenly in the breadcrumbs until a light crust forms.
Place the breadcrumb-coated chicken on the prepared baking tray. Optionally, lightly spray the top with olive oil for extra crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy.
Let rest for a few minutes before serving to retain its juiciness.
