Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C).
In a small sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant and tender, ensuring it doesn’t burn.
Once the garlic is softened, remove the pan from heat and stir in the brown sugar until well combined.
Lightly grease a casserole dish or line it with foil and spray with cooking spray for easier cleanup. Arrange the chicken breasts in the dish.
Evenly spread the garlic and brown sugar mixture over the chicken breasts. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and is cooked through.
Serve this sweet and savory chicken alongside rice and a fresh vegetable salad for a complete meal.
