Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
• ½ teaspoon coarse sea salt
• ¼ cup BBQ sauce
• ¼ cup avocado oil

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Combine avocado oil, barbeque sauce, vinegar, garlic, onion powder, paprika, salt, and cayenne and stir until well mixed.

Step 3

Place chicken breasts into a bowl or zip-top bag and pour 2/3 of the marinade mixture over, making sure to coat all pieces. Reserve the leftover marinade to brush chicken while grilling. Allow chicken to marinate, 6 to 24 hours for best results.

Step 4

Cook chicken on the preheated grill, brushing with reserved marinade and turning halfway through cooking time, until no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
