These BBQ hacks will help you make my juicy grilled chicken breast recipe taste even more amazing than ever, especially when you use Hoisin Sauce!

Today I’m sharing some great BBQ hacks for amazing grilled chicken breast! You know what I love about chicken breast? It is a lean cut of meat, affordable and filling. Eating a delicious chicken breast recipe for lunch or dinner will fill you for a long time and you won’t have cravings after. And you know what I don’t like about chicken breasts? They can be bland and  dry if you don’t season properly.

They can even be drier if you grill on the BBQ and don’t grease your BBQ before using it. That would be a waste of food and money when kids and significant other eat half of the chicken breast because they find it uninteresting. But I found few BBQ hacks for  grilled chicken breasts that you will lick your fingers after. Once I shared these with you, I will be sharing a delicious grilled recipe with one of my favourite sauces: Blue Dragon Hoisin Sauce. You know how much I love this sauce. You can check one of my previous recipes: BBQ chicken wings or my grilled avocado recipe with shrimps.

Let me start with my BBQ hacks

BBQ Hacks for Grilled Chicken Breast Recipe with Hoisin Sauce Ingredients

  • The secret with chicken and chicken breasts in general is the marinade. I usually marinate them for 24 to 48 hours. This will make the meat tender and juicy.
  • My marinade are usually simple: I add some mustard, oil, some Hoisin Sauce. I cover and store in the fridge.
  • I make sure I oil my BBQ grill with sesame oil. I learned this hack from Blue Dragon Canada Facebook page. Isn’t it amazing: quick, simple and you will add a nice flavor to your dishes.
  • When grilling, I cover my BBQ for the first 5 minutes and then uncover it. I don’t want my meat to burn.
  • During grilling, I brush my meat with Hoisin Sauce or any other marinade I am using. It will keep the meat moist and tender.

Those are few BBQ hacks that I use. They are easy and ensure a juicy dish. Now let’s see how you can eat one of the juiciest chicken breasts

  3. This looks like a great recipe for chicken. We cook and eat a lot of chicken because it is one of the few things I’m not sensitive to. We’ll have to try this!
