- Thoroughly wash the chicken breasts and slightly pound the chicken to flatten it. Cut about half an inch deep slits in each chicken breast.
- Whisk vinegar, barbeque sauce and garlic together in a bowl. Add chicken to the bowl and coat it well with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about an hour.
- Preheat an outdoor grill on medium-high heat and brush the grill grate with oil. Once the chicken is marinated, pat it dry using kitchen paper and discard the leftover marinade. Place the chicken on a plate and season with salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder and cayenne pepper.
- Place the chicken on the preheated grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes. Flip the chicken over, close the lid of the grill and cook while basting with barbeque sauce. Cook for about 9-10 minutes until it’s no longer pink and the juices run clear.
- Serve hot with mayo-dip or chipotle / barbeque sauce.
