Baked BBQ Chicken Breasts (3 Ingredients)
Report
Baked BBQ Chicken Breasts are so easy to make with only 3 simple ingredients. Tender & juicy chicken smothered in bbq sauce turns out perfect every time!
Share:
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts about 5 ounces each
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
Instructions
- In a medium bowl or freezer bag, combine chicken breasts, bbq sauce, and minced garlic. Marinate at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Place chicken and sauce in a 2.5qt casserole dish and bake uncovered for 30 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F.
- Cool 5 minutes before serving. Spoon sauce over the chicken to serve.
Notes
- Any cut of chicken will do in this recipe including drumsticks, legs, and split chicken breasts. If using bone in chicken, marinate as directed and place in a larger casserole dish (and it tends to have more juices). The chicken will need closer to 45 minutes.
- If you'd like a bit of char, broil for 2-3 minutes before removing from the oven.
- This chicken is also great shredded, stirred into the sauce and piled on hamburger buns (add a little chicken broth to the sauce if needed).
- Optional Additions
- Sweet: Maple syrup, honey, brown sugar
- Spicy: sriracha, chili flakes, diced jalapeno
- Tangy/Savory: Apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, ranch seasoning mix
