BBQ Chicken Breasts
AuthorChef DennisWho doesn't love BBQ chicken??? The family can take a swim in the pool while Dad makes a delicious meal!
Fire the grill up on “high”.
Place two of the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and, using a meat mallet or heavy frying pan, pound the breasts lightly to a thickness of about ½”. Be sure to pound outward so as not to tear the meat. For a healthier meal, you can remove the skin from the chicken. Repeat this process with the last two breasts.
LIGHTLY brush oil on both sides of each chicken breast and season each side with salt and pepper. You don’t want too much oil, just enough to help brown the meat.
Place the breasts on the grill, skin side down (if you didn’t remove the skin in step 2), and cook until golden brown and with a slight charring, about 4 minutes.
Flip the chicken over and continue grilling. Brush the top liberally with Dennis’ BBQ Sauce. Cook another 3 minutes.
Flip the chicken one more time and brush the top with Dennis’ BBQ Sauce. Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes. The chicken is ready when an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees.
Remove from the grill and tent with foil immediately. Let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving
