Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in half for 4 servings
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup breadcrumbs (Progresso Parmesan Flavored)
1/4 cup flour
1 packet taco seasoning mix (I used Old El Paso)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Put chicken breasts in large ziplock bag.
  • Pour buttermilk over chicken in bag.
  • Add one tablespoon of the taco seasoning to buttermilk/chicken.
  • Marinate for at least 2 hours (you could probably skip this but I find that buttermilk tenderizes chicken) Mix breadcrumbs, flour, remaining taco seasoning, salt and pepper.
  • Pour some of crumbs on a pie plate.
  • Lift buttermilk coated chicken breasts out of bag and roll in crumbs.
  • Or, you could do the shake and bake method.
  • Spray pan with cooking spray.
  • If you have a rack you can set on the pan, spray that.
  • Set chicken pieces on rack on in pan.
  • You could also use a broiler pan.
  • Optional: Spray chicken pieces with butter flavored Pam if you have some around.
  • Bake chicken pieces at 375 for about 35 to 40 minutes.
