Crispy Buttermilk Baked Chicken
Enjoy this delightful twist on classic fried chicken with a crispy baked coating. Marinated in buttermilk and coated in whole wheat breadcrumbs mixed with just the right amount of garlic and paprika, this dish is tender on the inside and irresistibly crunchy on the outside.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
1/4 cup Buttermilk (60g)
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (30g)
1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon Paprika
Salt and Pepper to taste
Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Place the chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound to even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, pour the buttermilk. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the buttermilk to help with seasoning.
In another shallow dish, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, and a light sprinkle of salt and pepper.
Dip the chicken breast into the buttermilk, ensuring it is fully soaked, then transfer it to the breadcrumb mixture. Press the crumbs onto the chicken to form a good coating.
Place the coated chicken breast on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the top with cooking spray to help with crisping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the exterior is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
