Instructions
- In a bowl, stir together all the BBQ sauce ingredients. Reserve ½ cup of the sauce. Set aside.
- Place the chicken breasts in a Ziplock bag. Add in the reserved ½ cup sauce and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour, and up to overnight, to marinade.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Simmer the BBQ sauce in a small saucepan for 10 minutes, or until thickened and fragrant.
- Place the marinated chicken on the baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and baste the chicken with a thick glaze of bbq sauce. Return to the oven and bake for 20-30 more minutes, basting every 10.
- Remove, baste again, and place back into the oven set to broil for 3-5 minutes until the bbq sauce forms a glaze.
- Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Notes
- Storage: Store baked BBQ chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Simmer any remaining sauce again before serving. This cooks any chicken juices that may have transferred to the sauce while basting, making it safe to eat.
- Quick no marinade version: Place the chicken breasts on the baking tray, and immediately baste with the BBQ sauce. Proceed with the remaining instructions.
- The thickness of your chicken breast will determine final cooking time. Thicker breasts will take longer to cook than thinner.
