Description

This BBQ Chicken Marinade infuses the chicken with irresistible flavors. With just a few key ingredients like BBQ sauce, Italian dressing, and garlic, it’s a quick and tasty option for any meal. Perfect for a summer grill or a quick weeknight dinner!


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 create the marinade.
  2. Poke holes in the chicken with a fork for better flavor absorption. Place the chicken in a dish or zip-top bag and cover it completely with the marinade. Refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes, up to 4 hours.
  3. Preheat the grill to a medium heat and brush it with oil to avoid sticking. Grill the chicken for 4-6 minutes on each side, ensuring it reaches an internal temperature of 165˚F.
  4. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

For best results, marinate chicken for at least 2 hours.
Adjust the marinade ingredients based on personal taste or experiment with different BBQ sauces.
This marinade works well with other meats, like pork or beef.
