INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.
In a shallow bowl, pour the buttermilk and add the paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Place the chicken breast in the marinade and ensure it is well coated. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In another bowl, add the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, then dredge it in the breadcrumbs ensuring a full, even coating.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the top with olive oil cooking spray for extra crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
