Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 0.5 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 0.5 cup pickle juice
- 0.5 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cans low-fat biscuit dough
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into 4 evenly sized fillets.
In a bowl, combine the low-fat buttermilk and pickle juice. Submerge the chicken fillets in this mixture and marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator, or overnight for the best flavor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a shallow dish, mix together the whole wheat flour, cornstarch, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
Remove the chicken fillets from the marinade and dredge each fillet in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and place the coated chicken fillets onto the sheet. Lightly spray the tops of the fillets with cooking spray as well.
Bake the chicken for approximately 15 to 18 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
While the chicken is baking, bake the low-fat biscuit dough according to the package instructions.
Once both the chicken and biscuits are done, assemble each sandwich by placing a piece of chicken between a split biscuit.
Serve warm and enjoy your low fat Chick-fil-A style chicken biscuits!
