Italian BBQ Chicken (3 Ingredients)
Ingredients
Marinade
1 cup Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce
1 cup Viva Italian Dressing (or Zesty Italian)
1 1/2 - 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts (works great with bone-in chicken, thighs and more)
Additional Sauce for Basting (optional)
1/3 cup Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce
1/3 cup Viva Italian Dressing (or Zesty Italian)
Directions
Add 1 cup of Italian dressing and 1 cup of barbecue sauce to a ziplock bag or dish for marinating, mix well. Add chicken, coating well and allow to marinate in fridge for 4 hours. When ready, remove chicken discarding remaining marinade. Grill chicken until it reaches a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees F.

Tips:
I make an additional batch of sauce for basting the chicken while grilling - 1/3 cup of Italian dressing and 1/3 cup bbq sauce.
I've only used Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce and Kraft Viva Italian Dressing or Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing for this marinade and highly recommend sticking with them for the recipe.
