Method

1

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2

In a small bowl, combine paprika, minced garlic, and honey; stir into the BBQ sauce to create a glaze.

3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat (or preheat grill to medium). Place chicken in the pan and cook 4–5 minutes per side until golden and nearly cooked through.

4

Reduce heat to medium, brush the BBQ glaze generously over the chicken, and cook for another 3–5 minutes, turning occasionally and basting until the chicken reaches 165°F internally and the glaze caramelizes.

5

If using vegetables, add them to the pan or grill during the last 10 minutes of cooking, tossing with a light coat of oil and salt.

6

Transfer to a serving platter, spoon any remaining pan sauce over the top, and serve hot with your choice of sides (rice, coleslaw, cornbread, or roasted vegetables).
