Baked Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken

Although baking is my hobby but being a housewife, cooking is usually one of the default task. Since I cannot bake as often in the past, I try to find recipes that uses the oven.  I am worried that both the oven and my KA will go to waste. :-(

Actually, cooking in the oven saves some effort. I do not have to keep standing by the stove. I just need to do periodic checks on the food in progress. For the past half a year, I have collected quite a number of recipes and also tried on them. Some of them my kids like, some of them my kids do not. I will try to post by the "Last out, First in" method (ie, last to be cooked, first to be blogged. Haha)

I came across this recipe in Pinterest. You can also see it from this link http://www.daydreamkitchen.com/2012/08/baked-garlic-brown-sugar-chicken/.

Both my kids and hubby sang praises to this dish. Maybe it is the first time they try? But I am happy they like it. Here is my half eaten chicken.

I am sad that it doesn't look as brown, but who cares when the family like it. The recipe below is for my easy reference (of course you can refer to it too :) )

2. In small saute pan, saute garlic with the oil until tender.

4. Place chicken breast in a prepared baking dish and cover lightly with the garlic and brown sugar mixture.
5. Add salt and pepper to taste.

I hope you will like this simple dish. I think I am going to cook this again next week.
