INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil Spray
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Paprika
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish. Pour the buttermilk over the chicken and sprinkle with half the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a separate shallow dish, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the remaining garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade, allowing excess to drip off, then coat each piece thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy and golden brown.
Let rest for a few minutes before serving to lock in the juices.
