- 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper to create a marinade.

- Serve the BBQ grilled chicken with your favorite sides and enjoy!

Renowned chefs like Bobby Flay and Aaron Franklin have put their own spin on this classic dish, incorporating unique marinades and sauces. The key to perfect BBQ grilled chicken lies in the marinade, which often includes a blend of spices, vinegar, and oil to infuse the meat with flavor.

Whether it's served with a side of coleslaw or cornbread, BBQ grilled chicken continues to be a beloved favorite at summer barbecues and family gatherings.
