Sweet Garlic Glazed Chicken

Story of my life:  I was short on time the other night.  I didn't thaw anything out and our leftovers were all gone (and THAT is NOT the story of my life!).  So, I broke out my electric skillet.  If you don't have an electric skillet, your life isn't complete.  Its just that simple. 

So, I threw six frozen chicken breasts into the electric skillet, cranked it up to 400 and let them cook/thaw.  Then I did this......

 

 

Oh yes. 

 

Right before the chicken was cooked all the way through, I put a small saucepan on the stove with about 7 tablespoons of EVOO, 5 tablespoons of brown sugar and 5 cloves of fresh minced garlic.  I cooked this on medium heat until it got to a boil, whisking continuously, then glazed the chicken!  I put the lid back on the skillet for a few more minutes and this is what happened!

 

About to run out the door for our date night, I opted to throw some rice and broccoli in the steamer to serve with it!  Ahhhh-maaazzzziiinnnngggg!!!

 

The glaze would probably be pretty bombtastic if you put some freshly grated ginger in as well!  Maybe next time?

 

Enjoy :)
