INGREDIENTS
1 piece (6 oz) Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thigh (~170g)
1/2 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk (~122g)
1/4 cup Almond Flour (~28g)
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Prepare a baking sheet by lightly spraying it with olive oil cooking spray or lining it with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, mix the low-fat buttermilk with a pinch of salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Place the boneless, skinless chicken thigh in the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator) to tenderize and absorb flavors.
In another shallow dish, spread the almond flour. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade, letting the excess drip off, and then dredge it thoroughly in the almond flour until evenly coated.
Place the coated chicken thigh onto the prepared baking sheet. For extra crispiness, lightly spray the top with olive oil cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the coating is golden and crispy.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy this crispy, flavorful chicken dish as a satisfying meal any time of day.
