INGREDIENTS
1 piece (170g) Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
1/4 cup (60g) Buttermilk
1/4 cup (30g) Whole Wheat Flour
1/8 cup (15g) Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Place the chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound to ensure even thickness.
In a shallow bowl, mix the buttermilk with salt, pepper, and half of the paprika and garlic powder.
Marinate the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) in the refrigerator.
In another shallow dish, combine the whole wheat flour, panko breadcrumbs, and the remaining paprika and garlic powder.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off, and dredge it thoroughly in the flour-breadcrumb mixture.
Place the coated chicken on a lightly greased baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
