INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Low-Fat Buttermilk
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Paprika
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
In a shallow dish, combine the low-fat buttermilk, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture, ensuring it is fully coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator) to tenderize and infuse flavor.
In a separate bowl, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the grated Parmesan cheese.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and allow excess to drip off. Dredge the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to ensure an even, crispy coating.
Lightly spray the coated chicken with olive oil spray on both sides to help with browning and crisping.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the coating is golden and crispy.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your meal!
