INGREDIENTS
6 oz Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
1 spray Nonstick Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.
In a shallow bowl, mix the low-fat buttermilk with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap and gently pound to an even thickness if needed.
Immerse the chicken in the buttermilk mixture, turning to coat well. Allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In another shallow dish, spread out the panko breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off, then dredge it evenly in the panko breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the top of the chicken with nonstick cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
While the chicken is baking, mix the Greek yogurt with a pinch of salt, pepper, and additional paprika if desired to create a simple dipping sauce.
Once baked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving alongside the yogurt dip.
