Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and oil together.
- Pat the chicken dry and rub all sides with the spice and oil mixture.
- Heat a grill pan or barbecue on medium high heat until warm. Oil the pan or grill grates to prevent the chicken from sticking.
- Grill the chicken until it has nice grill marks, about 3-5 minutes. Flip and baste with BBQ sauce. Cook until the second side has grill marks, another 2-3 minutes. Flip, baste with sauce and cook for another 1-2 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, flipping and basting as needed.
- Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
- While the chicken is resting, grill the bottom side of the buns until golden, about 10-30 seconds.
- Assemble sandwiches with lettuce, red onions, pickles, and extra barbecue sauce.
Notes
- Storage: Store BBQ chicken sandwich components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze BBQ chicken breasts for up to 3 months.
