Place the chicken breast in a shallow bowl with the buttermilk and let soak for 10 minutes to tenderize.
In a separate shallow dish, combine 2 tablespoons of the whole wheat flour with the sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off, and dredge it thoroughly in the seasoned flour mixture until coated.
Heat the avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat and pan-fry the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside to rest on a warm plate.
Whisk the remaining 0.5 tablespoon of flour into the remaining oil and pan drippings for 1 minute until a paste forms.
Slowly whisk in the almond milk and simmer until the gravy reaches a velvety consistency, then stir in the fresh parsley.
Drizzle the warm gravy over the crispy chicken and serve immediately.
