How to Make Bbq Chicken Mess
- **Prepare the Onion and Mushroom Topping:** In a medium pan, melt 2 tbsp butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the sliced mushrooms and brown sugar. Cook for another 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender.
- Add 1-2 tbsp of your favorite BBQ sauce to the onion and mushroom mixture. Stir to combine and cook for 1 minute more.
- Reduce heat to low and set aside.
- **Cook the Chicken:** In a large nonstick pan, cook the chicken breasts over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes per side, until browned.
- Pour equal amounts of BBQ sauce over each chicken breast.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- **Assemble and Finish:** Reduce heat to low. Top each chicken breast with the onion and mushroom mixture.
- Sprinkle generously with shredded cheddar cheese. Cover the pan and cook until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve immediately over a baked potato or your favorite sides.
- Enjoy your restaurant-quality BBQ Chicken Mess!
