INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 sprays Olive Oil Spray
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 salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, 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 marinade, letting the excess drip off, then press it into the breadcrumbs to form an even coating on both sides.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the top with olive oil spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the coating is crisp.
Let the chicken rest briefly before serving to lock in juices and flavor.
