Crispy Buttermilk Baked Chicken
Enjoy a delightfully crispy yet tender chicken breast, marinated in tangy buttermilk and lightly coated with seasoned panko breadcrumbs. This baked version delivers satisfying crunch and juicy inside without deep frying, perfect for a clean and balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow dish, pour the buttermilk and add half of the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade. Mix well.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk marinade, ensuring it is fully coated. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor and tenderness.
In another dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs with the remaining garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off, and then coat it evenly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Lightly drizzle olive oil over the coated chicken to help achieve a crispy texture.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the coating is crisp and golden.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
