Crispy Buttermilk Baked Chicken
Enjoy this take on a classic with tender chicken marinated in tangy buttermilk, lightly coated with whole wheat breadcrumbs and aromatic spices, then baked to achieve a satisfying, crunchy finish. The recipe is designed to be both flavorful and aligned with your nutritional goals.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Buttermilk
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil (spray/drizzle)
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the buttermilk with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture, ensuring it is thoroughly coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
In another shallow dish, spread out the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting excess buttermilk drip off. Dredge the chicken in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to help the crumbs adhere.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray or drizzle the top with olive oil to help achieve a crispy texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow to rest for a few minutes before serving.
