Chicken

Method

Prepare the Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Add the chicken breasts and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.

Make the BBQ Sauce

  1. 2

    Combine Sauce Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, mix together ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, mustard, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to combine.

  2. 3

    Cook the Sauce

    Heat the saucepan over medium heat until the mixture starts to bubble. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

Grill the Chicken

  1. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 5

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 6-7 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 6

    Baste with BBQ Sauce

    During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the chicken with the prepared BBQ sauce, allowing it to caramelize slightly on the grill.

Serve

  1. 7

    Rest and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with extra BBQ sauce on the side.
