Many pulled chicken recipes are made for the slow cooker, which is simple to prepare, but takes hours until the chicken is ready to eat. When you just need a simple and quick recipe, this one is it. This recipe came from the DinnerThenDessert website.

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 coarse ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1 1/2 cups ketchup
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
2. Cut diagonally into the chicken breasts about 1/4 inch deep in an x shape to help the bbq sauce flavor more of the chicken
3. Add all the ingredients together in a large bowl and toss well together until mixed
4. Add the chicken to a sheet pan and pour the sauce over the chicken breasts
5. Cook for 25-30 minutes or until caramelized, browned and cooked through
6. Shred the chicken with forks and serve on a bun, using a spoon to pour extra sauce over the chicken
7. If your sauce didn’t cook down enough, add the sauce to a saucepan and cook on medium heat until thickened
8. Enjoy!
