Chicken

Marinade

Glaze

Method

Marinating and prep

  1. 1

    Whisk marinade

    In a medium bowl, whisk together BBQ sauce, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, honey, and soy sauce until fully combined.

  2. 2

    Prepare chicken

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels to help marinade cling and reduce surface moisture.

  3. 3

    Marinate

    Place chicken in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, turning to coat. Seal and refrigerate for 2-4 hours for best flavor.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Bake the chicken

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Transfer the chicken with marinade to a baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  2. 5

    Apply glaze

    Brush the baked chicken with 0.25 cup BBQ sauce and return to the oven for 5-7 minutes to set the glaze.

  3. 6

    Grill finish

    Preheat grill to medium-high and oil the grates. Grill the chicken 2-3 minutes per side to achieve grill marks and heat through.

  4. 7

    Rest and serve

    Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite sides.
