Cut the chicken breast into evenly-sized pieces, approximately 5-6 cm each.
In a large bowl, add the buttermilk and submerge the chicken pieces. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for better absorption of flavors.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and oregano. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the spices.
Remove the chicken pieces from the buttermilk, allowing excess liquid to drip off, and dredge them in the flour mixture. Ensure each piece is well-coated.
Arrange the coated chicken pieces on the prepared baking tray. Leave space between each piece to allow even cooking.
Lightly spray the chicken with olive oil spray to enhance browning and crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, turning the chicken pieces halfway through the cooking time.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving for optimal juiciness and flavor retention.
