INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk
1 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour
1 tbsp Seasoned Breadcrumbs
1 cup Green Beans
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by slicing the chicken breast into evenly sized pieces if desired, or leave whole for a more traditional presentation.
In a shallow bowl, combine the low-fat buttermilk with a pinch of salt and pepper. Submerge the chicken pieces in the buttermilk mixture and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the coating by placing the whole wheat flour and seasoned breadcrumbs in a separate shallow dish. Mix them together evenly.
After marination, remove each piece of chicken from the buttermilk, letting excess drip off before dredging it through the flour-breadcrumb mixture to coat lightly.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Arrange the coated chicken pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Air fry the chicken for about 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure an even, crispy finish on all sides.
While the chicken cooks, preheat your oven to 425°F for the green beans. Toss the green beans with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the green beans for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy at the edges.
Once both the chicken and green beans are cooked, serve them together while hot, enjoying a balanced meal with a satisfying mix of crispy textures and fresh flavors.
