Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken

Ingredients:

  • 2-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 3 teaspoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C). Lightly grease a casserole dish. You can make cleanup easier by lining the dish with foil and spraying it with cooking spray.
  2. Prepare Garlic Mixture:
    • In a small sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic in the oil until it becomes tender and fragrant.
  3. Add Brown Sugar:
    • Remove the sauté pan from heat and stir in brown sugar, ensuring it combines well with the garlic mixture. This creates a sweet and savory sauce.
  4. Arrange Chicken in Baking Dish:
    • Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Arrange them in a single layer for even cooking.
  5. Coat Chicken with Garlic Mixture:
    • Pour the garlic and brown sugar mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly coated. You can use a brush or spoon to spread the mixture if needed.
  6. Season with Salt and Pepper:
    • Add salt and pepper to taste over the chicken breasts. Adjust the seasoning based on your preference.
  7. Bake Uncovered:
    • Bake the chicken uncovered in the preheated oven for 15-30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked. Cooking time may vary based on the thickness of the chicken breasts. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  8. Check for Doneness:
    • Ensure the chicken is cooked through by cutting into the thickest part and making sure the juices run clear. The chicken should be white and no longer pink.
  9. Serve Warm:
    • Once done, remove the chicken from the oven. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
  10. Optional Garnish:
    • Garnish with chopped parsley or green onions for a fresh touch before serving.
  11. Enjoy:
    • Serve the Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken with your favorite side dishes like rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
  12. Note:
    • Keep an eye on the chicken during baking to prevent overcooking. Adjust the cooking time based on the size and thickness of the chicken breasts.
