BBQ Chicken
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your grill to medium heat. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this spice mixture onto the chicken breasts.
Grill the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts on the grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Add BBQ Sauce
During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the barbecue sauce over the chicken breasts, allowing it to caramelize slightly.
Assemble the Sandwich
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice the chicken and place it on a bun. Add additional barbecue sauce if desired and top with coleslaw or pickles.
