Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper and toss with half of the bbq sauce. Spread the remaining bbq sauce into the bottom of the 9x13 pan or 2.5 qt baking dish.
- Add the chicken to the dish and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches 165°F in the thickest part.
- Top with shredded cheese and broil for 1-2 minutes or until melted.
- Sprinkle with tomatoes*, bacon bits, & green onions, and serve.
Notes
- *Try using salsa in place of tomatoes for a spicier alternative.
- Add your favorite toppings from ranch to sour cream, jalapenos or cilantro.
- Chicken thighs can be used in place with no changes needed. If you'd like to use split chicken breasts (bone-in) or even drumsticks, remove the skin and add an additional 20 minutes to the cooking time
- Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Freeze in zippered bags for up to 4 weeks. Reheat in a skillet or in the air fryer until heated through.
