INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1/4 cup Buttermilk
2 tbsp Panko Breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
Olive Oil spray
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Prepare a wire rack if available to allow extra crispiness.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and buttermilk. Season the chicken breast pieces with salt and pepper.
Dip each chicken piece into the wet mixture ensuring full coverage, then dredge in panko breadcrumbs evenly. Lightly spray with olive oil.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes until cooked through and golden brown, flipping halfway if desired.
While the chicken bakes, in a mixing bowl combine whole wheat flour, baking powder, a pinch of salt, and a little water if needed, to form a smooth waffle batter consistency.
Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it. Pour the batter into the iron and cook until the waffles are fluffy and lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Plate the crispy baked chicken alongside the warm whole wheat waffles. Serve immediately for a delightful balance of textures and flavors.
