1. In a bowl, combine the buttermilk, salt, black pepper, dried basil, dried oregano, garlic powder, and onion powder.
2. Add the chicken breasts to the buttermilk mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for the best flavor.
3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
4. In a separate bowl, combine the gluten-free bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.
5. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk mixture and let the excess liquid drip off. Dredge each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, evenly coating both sides.
6. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
🍴 Serve and Enjoy!
Plate the chicken breasts and serve with your favorite gluten-free pasta or a fresh salad. Add a sprig of fresh basil for garnish, if desired. Enjoy your homemade Gluten-Free Italian Buttermilk Chicken!
