Easy Barbecue Marinade For Baked Or Grilled Chicken

This is a tasty and easy meal that can be
prepped the same day and up to 3months
in advance. The cooking time is quick ~
just 10 to 15 minutes!

Ingredients:

3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup avocado oil

1/2 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Method:

Cut each chicken breast in half lengthwise. Place in a ziploc bag.

Mix together the remaining ingredients and pour over the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or freeze for up to 3 months.

When ready to cook, allow to thaw in the refrigerator overnight.

To Bake: Preheat oven to 400*. Place the chicken and marinade in a lightly greased a baking dish. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until the chicked is cooked through. (160*)

To Grill: Heat grill to 400*. Grill on all sides for 10 to 15 minutes or until cooked through to 160*.

Makes 6 servings.

Note: I prepped this chicken & marinade and stored in the freezer. The day before grilling, I transfered the frozen chicken to the refrigerator to defrost. I use and indoor grill with a lid to cook the chicken.
