CHEESY BAKED BBQ CHICKEN

Steps:

• PREP: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375ºF. Spray a 9x11 baking dish (or larger) with baking spray. In a bowl, add the bbq sauce and garlic powder and stir to combine, add the chicken breasts and stir so the chicken is evenly covered in the sauce. If you have time, you can allow it to marinate for an hour, if not, you can proceed immediately. Place the chicken breasts slide by side and pour any remaining bbq sauce over the chicken.
• BAKE: the chicken for 20 minutes, uncovered. Remove the chicken from the oven. Add the shredded cheese over the chicken breasts, sprinkle with red onions and jalapeños. Place the baking dish back in the oven and continue baking for another 5-10 minutes or until the cheese melts and the chicken cooks all the way through. Using an instant read thermometer, make sure the chicken temperature reads 165ºF. If it doesn't, continue cooking for an additional 1-5 minutes.
• SERVE: Top with the chopped cilantro and serve immediately.

CHEESY BAKED BBQ CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9x13 baking pan lightly with oil (or use an ungreased cast iron pan). Place the chicken in the pan.
• Combine the salt, pepper and garlic powder in a tiny bowl. Season the chicken by pinching the spice mixture between your fingers and sprinkling it evenly on each piece of chicken.
• Place 2 tablespoons of BBQ sauce on each breast and spread the sauce over the chicken with the back of your spoon.
• Shred the mozzarella if needed. Sprinkle about 2 1/2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella over the entire surface of each breast, using all of the cheese.
• If starting with a whole red onion, peel it and cut it in half. Start making thin slices and place 5 or six slices of onion on each chicken breast. (You'll use about 1/3 of a whole onion.)
• Bake the chicken for 25 minutes, uncovered. Check to see if it's done by using an intstant meat thermometer to see if it has reached 165 degrees F. If you don't have a thermometer, cut open a thick piece to make sure it's no longer pink inside. If needed, bake for another five minutes before checking it again. Don't overbake, or the chicken will be dry.
• Let the chicken rest on the stove, covered loosely with foil, for a few minutes before cutting into it. This will keep it juicy. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to four days. This also freezes well.
