Skinny Garlic Chicken, Wonderfully Easy and Delicious

Ingredients



1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons fresh garlic cloves, chopped, see shopping tip

¼ cup brown sugar

½ tablespoon water

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (1 pound total, each breast 4 ounces), see prep tip

Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking dish with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray. Set aside.

2. In small nonstick pan, add oil and garlic. Sauté garlic until tender about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in brown sugar and water.

3. Place chicken breasts in the foiled lined baking dish. Cover with garlic and brown sugar mixture.
Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper, to taste. At this point, you can place in refrigerator and store until ready to bake. If you store in refrigerator, it might take a little longer for the baking time.

4. Bake, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes until chicken is completely cooked. Cooking time will depend on the size and thickness of the chicken. Be sure to check for doneness after 15 minutes.

5. To serve: Plate each breast and spoon a little sauce over each.
