Notes

How long should I bake BBQ chicken:
This chicken takes a total of 40 minutes to bake. I used large raw, not frozen chicken breast. I baked it for 30 minutes then removed it to brush with my sauce.
Then baked it for an additional 10 minutes. Depending on the size of your chicken breast you could need more time.
If you need more than 10 minutes to get your chicken to a safe temperature, I suggest brushing it with BBQ sauce again then placing it back into the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes to cook.
