Calories: 376kcal
Ingredients
- 2 boneless and skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup buttermilk reduced-fat
- 1/2 cup white whole-wheat flour
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 cup whole wheat panko bread crumbs
Instructions
- Lightly spray a 2 to 4 quart slow cooker with nonstick spray.
- Pour the buttermilk into a small mixing bowl. In another bowl, combine the flour, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and kosher salt. Add the panko bread crumbs to a shallow dish.
- Dip the chicken breast into the buttermilk and allow the excess to drip off. Dredge the filet into flour mixture before dipping it again into the buttermilk.
- Press the chicken breast into the panko, pressing it gently into the breadcrumbs on each side to make sure they adhere.
- Mist the chicken on both sides with nonstick cooking spray and place it in the slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on high 2-1/2 hours or until the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
- Remove the lid and allow to continue cooking for 10 minutes. Removing the lid helps the chicken get crunchier.
