Description

Enjoy the irresistible flavor of this BBQ Chicken Marinade made with chicken breast, BBQ sauce, Italian dressing, and garlic. It’s perfect for a quick and easy dinner that will please everyone.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken breast, boneless, skinless
  • 1/2 cup bbq sauce
  • 1/4 cup italian dressing
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic, pressed

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the BBQ sauce, Italian dressing, apple cider vinegar, and pressed garlic to make the marinade.
  2. Use a fork to poke holes in the chicken all over. Place the chicken in a dish or a zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it to ensure it is fully covered. Refrigerate for up to 4 hours, or at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium heat and brush it with oil to prevent the chicken from sticking. Grill the chicken for 4-6 minutes on each side, adjusting the time based on thickness, until it reaches an internal temperature of 165˚F.
  4. After grilling, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken overnight if possible.
This marinade is great for other proteins like pork or tofu.
Serve with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
