Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Coat the chicken breasts with this mixture and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F).

BBQ Sauce Preparation

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine BBQ sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and smoked paprika. Stir well to combine.

  2. 4

    Heat the Sauce

    Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat once thickened.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Once the chicken is grilled, brush it generously with the BBQ sauce. Place the chicken on the bottom half of each burger bun.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    If desired, add a scoop of coleslaw and pickles on top of the chicken. Cover with the top half of the bun.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your BBQ Chicken Sandwich!
