Juicy BBQ Baked Chicken
Let’s start with the hero of our feast – the Juicy BBQ Baked Chicken. Imagine sinking your teeth into juicy, golden-brown skin that gives way to moist, flavorful meat.
The secret? Marinating the chicken in a concoction of your favorite Western dressing and a generous slathering of BBQ sauce.
This dynamic duo creates a harmony of sweet, tangy, and savory notes that will have your taste buds doing a happy dance.
To achieve this, start by adding dry onion soup mix to the bottom of a 9×13 glass baking dish, top with the raw chicken breast.
Pour the BBQ sauce and western dressing mixture over top of the chicken breast.
Once fully covered, pop them in the oven at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes, until the internal temperature is at 160 degrees.
Make sure to flip the BBQ baked chicken over once half way through baking, so the seasonings coat each side of the chicken.
Trust me; your kitchen will be filled with an aroma that will have everyone eagerly awaiting dinner.

Best Leftover Storage Instructions
As much as we’d love to devour this feast in one sitting, there’s always room for leftovers.
Here’s how you can ensure that the flavors stay intact for the next day’s foodie adventure.
Chicken: Store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
To reheat, use the oven for a few minutes to maintain that juicy skin.
Avoid the microwave to prevent the skin from turning soggy.
Green Beans, Mashed Potatoes, and Steamed Veggies: These sides are also best stored in airtight containers.
When reheating, use the microwave or stovetop for a quick and easy revival of their original deliciousness.
