Barbecue chicken is totally classic but store bought sauces can be full of sugar and unnecessary carbs. This easy recipe from my AHealthierU app, utilizes a quick BBQ chicken marinade, that will yield perfectly tender, juicy, & flavorful BBQ chicken every time.

Whether you’re hosting a backyard bash or craving a quick family dinner, this recipe is my go-to choice.

Serves 4:

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice
  • 2 scallions, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon of finely chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1 teaspoon of finely chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 teaspoon of finely chopped fresh sage
  • 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds, toasted and crushed freshly ground black pepper to taste
