  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

1

Marinate the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

2

In a bowl, mix together flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, and coat thoroughly in the flour mixture.

5

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

6

Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through.
