Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • kosher salt (, to taste)
  • freshly ground black pepper (, to taste)
  • 1/2 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce

Instruction:

  1. Prepare the grill for direct cooking at high heat (450°F). Brush the cooking grates clean.
  2. Drizzle the chicken breasts with extra virgin olive oil and rub over the breasts. Season generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Place the chicken breasts on the hot grill. Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes or until they easily release from the grates. Flip the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes longer. Baste the chicken breasts with BBQ sauce, flip and cook for 2 minutes on each side. Repeat on the other side. Cook until the breasts are firm to the touch and opaque all the way through, registering 160°F internal temp (the temp will rise to 165°F as the chicken rests).

FAQ

Do you put BBQ sauce on chicken before cooking?

Most grillers will apply the sauce first and then continue to baste the chicken with sauce while it cooks. This is a common practice, but it can lead to burning your chicken. You want the chicken to slowly cook to perfection and then add the sauce during the final 10 to 15 minutes of cooking.

What is the best way to cook chicken on a BBQ?
