INGREDIENTS
7 oz Chicken Breast
1/3 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Paprika
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
Olive Oil Spray (3 sprays)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the low-fat buttermilk with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound it slightly to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
Submerge the chicken in the buttermilk mixture, ensuring it is well coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In another shallow dish, spread out the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting excess drip off. Dredge the chicken in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently so the coating adheres well.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the top with olive oil spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy. Flip halfway through if necessary.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
