| Yield: | 4 chicken breasts |
Ingredients
- 1 serving cooking spray
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 4 bone-in chicken breast halves
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray.
- Combine oil and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat; saute until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat, add brown sugar, and stir until liquid, about 3 minutes.
- Lay chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish and pour brown sugar sauce over top. Sprinkle with black pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
