Crispy Baked Buttermilk Chicken
Enjoy a healthier twist on classic fried chicken with this Crispy Baked Buttermilk Chicken. Marinated in tangy low-fat buttermilk and lightly coated with seasoned whole-wheat breadcrumbs and spices, this dish delivers a satisfying crunch and savory flavor without the extra grease.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole-Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the low-fat buttermilk with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture and let it marinate 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 marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off, then dredge the chicken in the breadcrumbs until evenly coated.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray or drizzle with a small amount of oil if desired to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving to retain juiciness.
