Ingredients
- 1 piece (about 6 oz) boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 0.5 cup nonfat buttermilk
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce
- 0.5 cup whole wheat flour
- 0.25 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0 non-stick cooking spray
- 1 package (8 biscuits) low-fat biscuit dough
Directions
Step 1
Slice the chicken breast into 4 equal pieces and pound each piece to an even thickness.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine nonfat buttermilk and hot sauce. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to marinate.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 4
In a shallow bowl, mix whole wheat flour, cornstarch, salt, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Step 5
Remove chicken from the marinade, allowing excess buttermilk to drip off, and coat each piece in the flour mixture, pressing slightly to adhere.
Step 6
Place the coated chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet and generously spray each side with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy, turning halfway through baking.
Step 8
While the chicken is baking, prepare the low-fat biscuits according to package instructions.
Step 9
To assemble the chicken biscuits, split each biscuit in half and place a piece of baked chicken in the center. Serve warm.
