INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Paprika
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the buttermilk, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast, ensuring it is well coated, and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In another shallow dish, mix together the whole wheat flour and panko breadcrumbs. This will be your crispy coating.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess buttermilk to drip off, then dredge it thoroughly in the flour and panko mixture until evenly coated.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the top of the chicken with cooking spray to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating turns golden and crispy.
Let it rest a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
