INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

0.25 cup low-fat buttermilk

2 tbsp whole wheat flour

1 tbsp olive oil

1 cup green beans

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp paprika

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the chicken breast in a bowl and pour the buttermilk over it, letting it marinate for at least 15 minutes to tenderize.

• 2

  In a shallow dish, whisk together the whole wheat flour, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until well combined.

• 3

  Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess liquid to drip off, then dredge thoroughly in the flour mixture until evenly coated.

• 4

  Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 5 to 7 minutes per side until the crust is golden and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.

• 5

  While the chicken is cooking, steam the green beans in a small amount of water for 4 to 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.

• 6

  Plate the crispy chicken immediately alongside the steamed green beans for a balanced, clean-eating dinner.
