INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup low-fat Buttermilk
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow dish, combine the low-fat buttermilk with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
Place the chicken breast in the dish, ensuring it is evenly coated in the buttermilk mixture. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a separate shallow bowl, add the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, then dredge the chicken in the breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Arrange the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the coating is crispy.
Let rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute evenly.
