Serves: 4-8 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 cup low fat buttermilk
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 small roasting chicken, cut into parts ( or 2 breasts and 2 leg quarters, skin on or off as desired)
  • 2 cups coarsely ground dry bread crumbs
  • Salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Combine the buttermilk with the paprika, garlic, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl and stir together. Add the chicken pieces, turning to coat evenly, and then refrigerate for 2 hours.
  2. Shake excess buttermilk from the chicken pieces and then coat each piece evenly with breadcrumbs. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and lay the coated pieces on the pan. Sprinkle lightly with salt, and then bake at 350 degrees until cooked through, about 45 minutes.
  3. (NOTE: If you want your chicken pieces nice and crispy all over, cook them on a wire rack set over the baking sheet instead of putting the chicken directly on the baking sheet!)
