Enjoy a delightfully crispy yet healthy twist on classic fried chicken. Tender chicken breast is marinated in tangy buttermilk, lightly coated in whole wheat breadcrumbs, and baked to crunchy perfection.

INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (approx. 170g)
1/2 cup Buttermilk (approx. 120g)
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (approx. 30g)
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 sprays Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the buttermilk with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the bowl and ensure it is fully submerged in the marinade. Let it rest for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a separate shallow dish, spread out the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing the excess to drip off. Dredge the chicken in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray with olive oil cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the coating is crisp. You may flip halfway through for even crispness.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
