INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1/4 tsp Paprika
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a shallow dish, combine the low-fat buttermilk, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Coat the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture and let it marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Place the whole wheat breadcrumbs on a plate. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, then press it into the breadcrumbs to thoroughly coat both sides.
Arrange the breaded chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Trim the asparagus ends and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange them around the chicken on the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving alongside the roasted asparagus.
