INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk
1/3 cup Whole-Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the low-fat buttermilk with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breasts in the bowl, ensuring they are fully submerged in the buttermilk mixture. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the fridge for extra flavor).
In a separate shallow dish, spread out the whole-wheat breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and allow any excess liquid to drip off. Dredge each chicken breast in the breadcrumbs, pressing lightly so the crumbs adhere well.
Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. For an extra crisp finish, lightly spray the tops with a touch of oil.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the coating is golden and crisp.
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
