written by BBQ & Grilling Recipes | February 16, 2023

Ingredients

2/3 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1 clove garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts or 8 boneless skinless thighs (about 1 1/2 pounds)

Directions

For the marinade: Combine the ketchup, sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire, cumin, paprika, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few turns of pepper in a large resealable plastic bag. Add 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts or 8 boneless skinless thighs (about 1 1/2 pounds), squeeze out the air, seal tightly and massage gently to coat the chicken with marinade. Refrigerate for 2 hours or freeze up to 1 month; defrost in the refrigerator overnight before cooking.

To cook: Remove the chicken from the bag and grill over indirect heat, covered, until cooked through, lightly charred and an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F, 20 to 25 minutes.
