Chicken thighs are a favorite weeknight dinner because they’re easy, juicy and on the table fast. Boneless and skinless chicken thighs are also still relatively budget friendly, and can feed a crowd (or make excellent leftovers).
This easy one-pan barbecue chicken recipe makes a savory sauce, so we serve it over rice or alone with vegetables if we’re watching our carbs. This chicken recipe is an easy, delicious dinner in just about 30 minutes. Plus you get a whopping 47 grams of protein per serving in this high-protein recipe!

To make this easy one-pan dinner recipe you will need the following ingredients from your fridge and pantry: boneless/skinless chicken thighs, fresh garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free dinner), apple cider vinegar and barbecue sauce.
Serve the juicy barbecue chicken thighs over rice or with vegetables of choice. I served mine with sautéed broccoli and carrots for a quick and easy dinner everyone enjoyed.

Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 8 boneless/skinless chicken thighs
- 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup soy sauce (or low-sodium soy sauce or gluten-free tamari)
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup barbecue sauce (I used Sweet Baby Ray’s Barbecue Sauce)
Here's how to make it:
- In a large saucepan on low heat, add the olive oil, garlic, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar and barbecue sauce. Stir to combine.
- Add the chicken. (You could use chicken breasts instead of thighs.) Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and allow to simmer until chicken is cooked, about 20 to 25 minutes. (Chicken is cooked through at 165 degrees F internal temperature on a food thermometer.) Serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat in the microwave.
