Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken breasts.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on one side, then flip them over.

  4. 4

    Add BBQ Sauce

    After flipping, brush the barbecue sauce over the grilled side of the chicken. Cook for another 6-7 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the chicken from the grill, add more barbecue sauce if desired, and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
