Food Safety
Before you start, wash all surfaces and your hands with soap and warm water, and remember to wash your hands, utensils and cutting boards after they touch raw meat or eggs. Avoid cross-contamination by using a different cutting board for your meat and other ingredients. Make sure you’re cooking to safe temperatures and chilling any leftovers within two hours.

Steps
In a saucepan over medium heat cook garlic and onion in 1 Tbsp (15 mL) of hot oil until tender, stirring occasionally.
Add ketchup, maple syrup, vinegar, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper; bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and simmer 15 minutes. Add some water if sauce is too thick, or cook longer if sauce is too thin.
Grill each breast 6-8 minutes over medium heat or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Apply BBQ sauce after grilling is complete.
Cut buns in half, garnish with lettuce on bottom half and cheese slice on top half. Add more BBQ sauce to chicken if desired.
Helpful Tip
Cheddar may be placed on top of chicken towards the end of grilling for a better melt, rather than being added during assembly.
