Description

A delicious and simple meal featuring tender chicken coated in rich, tangy BBQ sauce.


Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder if you desire a flavor boost.
  3. Place the chicken in a baking dish and brush generously with BBQ sauce.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until cooked through—the internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
  5. Once done, remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes to lock in the juices.
  6. Serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side for those who like it saucy!

Notes

For maximum flavor, marinate the chicken in BBQ sauce for a few hours or overnight. Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect cooking.
