Simply scrumptious!

That sums up this recipe. Very easy and full of flavor. Some days call for a no fuss meal and that is exactly what you get here. Chicken breast is on the menu often in my home and I am always looking for new ways to serve it.

Chicken breast is a healthy way to get protein in your diet, but it does not have to be bland. I have a spice rub that goes on first and gives so much flavor! The spice blend has a little heat, so I tend to pick a sweet BBQ sauce. The balance of sweet and spicy just works so well.

If you have time and would like to make your own BBQ sauce, give this one a try. It works wonderfully with chicken and pork. Whiskey BBQ Sauce! <– Clicke here for the recipe.

After you rub the spice blend on, then goes the BBQ sauce, and baked in the oven. It is that simple! My favorite way to eat chicken is with herbed baby red potatoes and a side salad.

Potatoes-

Boil the potatoes until tender. Drain and toss with olive oil and a herb blend. Fresh parsley, fresh dill, garlic powder, white truffle oil, salt, and pepper. SO GOOD!

Okay let’s get the chicken going!
