Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken

Im always looking for new recipes for chicken. Its such a versatile protein, but can get old quickly with no new ways to cook it. I saw this recipe on The Novice Chef and thought it looked delicious! I was very intrigued about the use of garlic and brown sugar together. I told my husband about the recipe and he kinda of turned up his nose (hes a VERY picky eater). I tried it anyway, cutting back on some of the brown sugar, and he LOVED it! This will definitely be made again! **Note: I used a non-stick skillet and this made for very easy clean up, since some of the sugar does get into the pan**



Ingredients:

4 cloves of garlic, minced
4 tablespoons butter
1 pound boneless chicken tender cut breast meat
Salt (I used kosher)
Fresh Ground Pepper
6 tablespoons packed brown sugar ( I used about 4 TBSP)

Melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter has completely melted and has started to bubble add your garlic. Allow the garlic to start to cook and become fragrant and then add your chicken tenders and season with the salt and pepper liberally. Cook thoroughly, internal temp should be around 160°, then add your brown sugar on the tops of each piece of meat. Let the brown sugar melt onto each piece, about 5 minutes. Enjoy!
