Baked to perfection, it offers a crunchy exterior and juicy interior that’s both satisfying and aligned with clean eating goals.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, pour the buttermilk and add a pinch of salt and pepper. Submerge the chicken breast in the buttermilk, ensuring it is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In another bowl, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the mixed fresh herbs, and a little extra salt and pepper.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently so the crumbs adhere well.
Place the coated chicken on the baking sheet and lightly drizzle or spray with olive oil to aid in crisping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the coating is golden brown and crispy.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy baked buttermilk chicken with a side of your favorite salad or steamed vegetables.
