Ingredients:
• 1350 g boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 cup bread crumbs
• 1 cup parmesan cheese
• 1 cup of buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon paprika
Method:
• Each breast should be placed between two pieces of plastic wrap and pounded to a thickness of 3/4 inch with a mallet or rolling pin. Chicken should be soaked in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes.
• The remaining ingredients should be combined on a small plate. Shake any remaining buttermilk from the chicken pieces before dipping them in the bread mixture.
• Spread out flat on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer reads 165 degrees F in a preheated oven at 400 degrees F.
