I love to serve this chicken with potato salad and coleslaw. It's the perfect summer meal.

This is a great recipe for summer cookouts. The chicken can be cooked on the grill or in the oven.

I've made this recipe with both chicken thighs and chicken breasts and both versions are delicious. I prefer the chicken thighs because they're more flavorful.

I'm not a big fan of barbecue sauce, but this recipe changed my mind. The sauce is not too sweet or tangy, and it pairs perfectly with the chicken.

I used a different type of barbecue sauce than the recipe called for and it was still delicious. This recipe is very versatile.

I made this recipe with boneless, skinless chicken breasts and it turned out great! The chicken was still moist and juicy.

I love that this recipe uses simple ingredients that I always have on hand. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The chicken is cooked in the oven so there's no need to babysit it on the grill.
