Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

  2. In a small bowl, mix together the BBQ sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.

  3. Place the chicken breasts in the greased baking dish, ensuring they are in a single layer and not overlapping.

  4. Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the chicken, making sure each piece is evenly coated.

  5. Cover the baking dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven.

  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

  7. Remove the foil and switch the oven to broil. Return the baking dish to the oven and broil for an additional 5 minutes or until the BBQ sauce caramelizes slightly.

  8. Keep a close eye on the chicken while broiling to prevent burning.

  9. Once done, remove the baking dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

  10. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired and serve hot alongside your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or a crisp green salad.
