Crispy Buttermilk Baked Chicken
Enjoy a healthier twist on a fried favorite with tender chicken marinated in buttermilk and coated in a crunchy whole wheat breadcrumb and Parmesan crust. Baked to crispy perfection, this dish delivers satisfying protein and a savory flavor without the extra fat of traditional frying.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
2 sprays Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound to an even thickness if necessary.
In a shallow dish, pour the buttermilk. Submerge the chicken breast in the buttermilk and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a separate bowl, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off. Dredge the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray both sides with olive oil spray.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the crust is crispy.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.
