Crispy Oven-Baked Buttermilk Chicken
Enjoy this flavorful and crunchy twist on a classic fried chicken. Tender chicken breast is marinated in tangy buttermilk, then coated with seasoned whole wheat breadcrumbs, and baked to a golden crisp. A perfect blend of protein and satisfying crunch makes it a delightful option for any meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the buttermilk with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
In another bowl, place the whole wheat breadcrumbs. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off, then press it into the breadcrumbs to form an even coating.
Place the coated chicken onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly mist the top with olive oil to aid crisping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the coating is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
