INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (skinless)
1/2 cup Buttermilk
2 tbsp Cornstarch
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F and lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.
In a bowl, combine the buttermilk with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the chicken breast, ensuring it's fully submerged, and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).
In a separate shallow dish, mix the cornstarch with paprika, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge each piece thoroughly in the cornstarch mixture, ensuring an even coating.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil cooking spray to promote crisping.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the coating becomes golden and crispy.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy baked buttermilk chicken as a satisfying meal at breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
