INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow dish, combine the buttermilk, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk marinade, ensuring it’s fully coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Prepare a second shallow dish with whole wheat breadcrumbs. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off, then press it into the breadcrumbs to form an even, crispy coating.
Place the breaded chicken onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray or drizzle olive oil over the top of the chicken to promote browning.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the crust is crispy.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving to enhance juiciness and flavor.
