We love this recipe! So quick and easy! Last time we made it we shredded the chicken for and made sandwiches out of it! Highly recommended!

I actually did mine in the oven, as I didn't feel like standing over the stove to brown the meat; it turned out super, no leftovers of this dish!!

This was awesome! I used Sweet Baby Ray's Chipolte BBQ sauce and this was fantastic! This recipe is a keeper!!

I'll be fixing this recipe soon but only have regular barbecue sauce. What spice can I add to make it spicy? Thanks.

We decided to have pork chops instead of chicken today but were pleased. We would make it again with the chicken. We served with sweet potato & roasted asparagus (topped with toasted sesame seeds). Yum!!

Made this for my family (and my very picky son) and it was a true hit! The flavor is very good and it kept the chicken very moist. I can see this sauce being used on pork chops, ribs, drumsticks, etc. and it being a 'go-to' sauce because of its ease to make. Great recipe! I also like that it is low in sodium per serving. Big hit!!
