A great weeknight dinner that can also be repurposed for tomorrow’s lunch! This recipe is great baked also, but I love it grilled for summer! Just a few ingredients, one dish and you’ve got dinner ready to go!
This is perfect leftover for a BBQ chicken salad, or a chicken wrap for the kids’ lunches! When you clean up after dinner, pack your lunch and the kids’ lunch for the next day. This will save you time and rush in the morning
Grilled BBQ Chicken
Ingredients:
- Olive oil spray
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken breasts
- Chicken seasoning, OR dry BBQ seasoning (you can make this and season with it!)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp ground white pepper
For Sauce:
- 3 TBS honey – The addition of honey gives it that sweet and sticky extra!
- 1 cup BBQ sauce – I recommend Primal Kitchen. There are no added sugars or artificial sweeteners!
Directions
- Preheat grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
- Get two pieces of parchment and place chicken breast between them. Use a meat hammer to tenderize. Pound on each side of the chicken breast until you get desired thickness. This is SO worth the effort! It makes your chicken extra tender and juicy!
- Spray chicken with olive oil spray and season both sides of the chicken breasts with dry seasoning of your choice.
- Mix together honey and BBQ sauce.
- Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook, covered, for 4 minutes per side. Baste each side of the chicken liberally with the honey BBQ sauce and cook for an additional minute on each side. The internal temp of the chicken should be 165 degrees. If you don’t grill often- get a meat thermometer. This makes it so much easier to know when your meat is done! You will probably have a little extra sauce for serving.
- Enjoy!
I served grilled corn on the cob and green beans. I cooked the green beans in the oven while the corn and chicken cooked on the grill
