Description

Tender, juicy chicken coated in rich BBQ sauce, perfect for busy weeknights and easy meal prep.


Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper according to your taste.
  3. Place the seasoned chicken in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil if you desire a richer flavor.
  4. Coat the chicken evenly with BBQ sauce, ensuring each piece is generously covered.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  6. Once cooked, remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For a caramelized effect, broil the chicken for the last few minutes – and consider marinating for enhanced flavor.
