For a spicier kick, add a dash of Cajun seasoning to the chicken breasts before grilling. If you don't have a grill, you can also bake the chicken in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through. Serve with your favorite sides, such as grilled corn on the cob, coleslaw, or a simple green salad. Feel free to experiment with different flavors of barbecue sauce to customize the recipe to your liking.

Apr 7, 2025I accidentally overcooked the chicken a little, but it was still pretty good. Next time, I'll be sure to keep a closer eye on it.
