applesauce barbecue chicken

applesauce + barbecue sauce...does this sound like an odd combo for chicken marinade?
if so, you'll just have to trust me. this is a great simple recipe for a weeknight meal..
pair it with veggies, mashed potatoes, salad, or fruit and you're good!
you can make it in the crock pot, or bake it.

Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 t ground pepper
2/3 cup chunky applesauce
2/3 cup BBQ sauce

2. Place chicken breasts on bottom.
3. Mix all remaining ingredients together, and pour over chicken.
