Baked Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken

Ready to hear the simplest, most delicious baked chicken recipe out there? Really though, this one is a classic for sure. I've been a little weary cooking with raw meat, mainly because I never cook with raw meat. The only meat I usually eat on my own is either processed turkey or frozen chicken cooked on the George Foreman. I wanted to try something less processed, less frozen, and much more tasty. Feeling pretty poor, I felt as though I had hit the lottery when I came across this recipe. The two ingredients I needed (other than the chicken) I already had! Brown sugar, and garlic. Surely EVERYONE has these two. Believe me...if I do, then you do. All I had to buy was the chicken- $4.50 at Kroger...all in all, very cheap. 

Al righty now for the cooking part. Maybe it was my lack of experience with cooking chicken, but I will be honest, I was very unsure how this was going to turn out. I felt as though the chicken would surely be too bland with only some brown sugar & garlic sprinkled on top. Thankfully, I was wrong. The sugar & garlic mixture forms a type of sticky glaze over the chicken, covering it in entirety. The flavor reminded me of oriental dishes I've had before. I give it a 10/10.
