3 Ingredient Chicken
Chicken breasts, garlic, and barbecue sauce is all it takes, why not double up the recipe and freeze extra for last-minute salads? CHICKEN: We love this recipe with lean boneless skinless chicken breasts, they’re so easy and cook fast. Any cut of chicken will do in this recipe, drumsticks, thighs, and legs come out juicy every time. If using bone-in chicken, coat the chicken with bbq sauce and place in a larger casserole dish (and it tends to have more juices). The chicken will need closer to 45 minutes. SAUCE: Store-bought BBQ sauce & fresh garlic make this recipe super easy but if time allows, we love homemade bbq sauce. Choose BBQ, hickory, honey, sweet and sour.
Variations
This chicken is one of those recipes that’s really easy to change with a few additions to the BBQ sauce. Try any of the following.
Sweet: Maple syrup, honey, brown sugar Spicy: sriracha, chili flakes, diced jalapeno Tangy/Savory: Apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, ranch seasoning mix
