INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, pour the buttermilk and add a pinch of salt and pepper. Submerge the chicken breast in the buttermilk, ensuring it is well coated, and let it marinate for 15-20 minutes.
In another bowl, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, and a little extra salt and pepper.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing any excess liquid to drip off. Lightly coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs adhere well.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle or lightly spray with olive oil to help achieve a crispy exterior.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy. An internal temperature of 165°F is recommended.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy oven-baked buttermilk chicken!
