INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Paprika
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the buttermilk, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture, ensuring it’s fully submerged, and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a separate shallow dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then press it into the panko breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Lightly spray the coated chicken with cooking spray and transfer it to the baking sheet.
Bake for 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.
