This big-batch baked BBQ chicken is the perfect meal prep staple for your home! Versatile, easy, and delicious!
Ingredients:
- 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 8.5-ounce jar BBQ sauce
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
Intructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour the jar of BBQ sauce into the dish. Using tongs, toss the chicken breasts until they're fully coated in BBQ sauce, then line them up in the dish so that they aren't overlapping.
- Sprinkle the smoked paprika, sea salt, and chili powder over top of the chicken breasts.
- Bake the chicken breasts at 375°F until the internal temperature of the largest breast reaches 165°F (about 25-30 minutes).
- Once the chicken is out of the oven, let it rest for at least 10 minutes, then chop it into cubes.
Lunch Tip: Save time by packing school lunches right after dinner while your kitchen is still messy.
