{made it} Garlic Chicken

Garlic Chicken
4 servings
*Adapted from Food.com recipe

Brown sugar on anything - dessert, sweet potatoes, and not surprisingly, chicken - kicks it up a notch in my book. And the brown sugar makes this recipe. This chicken had such an interesting flavor - in a good way - with the sweetness of the brown sugar mingled with the spices and garlic. 



Ingredients
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 T brown sugar
1 T olive oil
Additional herbs and spices, as desired (I used a rosemary garlic blend)

Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking dish or cookie sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray or lightly brush with oil. Using foil is important if you don't want a sticky mess to clean up.

In a small pan, sauté garlic with the oil until tender and smelling good.

Remove the garlic from the heat and stir in the brown sugar. Add in your additional spices as desired. 

Place chicken breasts on foil and cover with the garlic and brown sugar mix.

Bake uncovered for 15-30 minutes, or until juices run clear. Cooking time will depend on the size and thickness of your chicken. Mine took about 20 minutes.
