Quick BBQ Chicken Thighs in Easy Dinner Recipes,We speed up this cookout classic by using boneless chicken thighs and a hot grill pan. You’ll be amazed out how quickly a homemade barbecue sauce comes together; it's great for making just what you need (no half-empty bottle lurking in your fridge) with less added sugar and salt than store-bought. Look for refrigerated mashed potatoes in the prepared foods aisle of the supermarket, usually with the refrigerated fresh pastas. Besides mashed potatoes, you could also serve the chicken with grilled corn on the cob or roasted sweet potato wedges.

Slow Cooker Honey Chipotle BBQ Chicken in Easy Dinner Recipes,The simplest flavors can come together just right and make the most amazing sauce that will blow away any ideas that chicken for dinner is boring! The key here? Make sure you use bone-in chicken thighs with skin. This is a must! The second most? Brown up that chicken for 6 minutes before you load it into the slow cooker. This will ensure the most flavorful, crispy and amazing chicken to happen in a long time! The sauce here is just a simple little combo of BBQ (you could use homemade), lots of good ‘ole honey, and just as much sauce from a can of chipotle peppers that you can handle! A nice thick sauce that perfectly coats the chicken that we made nice and crispy on the outside. And since we slow cooked it all day the inside says so juicy! No dry, boring chicken anywhere in sight.

Barbecue Pineapple Chicken in Easy Dinner Recipes,This is an easy, mid-week dinner for you! This sweet and savory Barbecue Pineapple Chicken is so easy to put together, uses your favorite BBQ sauce, fresh pineapple chunks and gets a little kick from a diced jalapeno. Baked and caramelized, this Barbecue Pineapple Chicken is perfect with rice and lots of barbecue pineapple sauce on top. Feel free to use your BBQ sauce of choice. Everything gets roasted and caramelized. As the pineapples bake they break down and release their juices, mixing with the BBQ sauce that is great when poured on top served with rice to soak it all up. Tender pieces of chicken with a nice BBQ flavor mix well with the tangy tropical pineapple. Toss in whatever vegetables you care to if bell peppers are not your favorite. I like the pop of heat from the diced jalapeño that mellows slightly when cooked.
