Beer and Brown Sugar Chicken Breasts

Step 1

Pound the chicken breasts to an even 2/4-inch thickness. Salt and pepper them and set aside.

Step 2

Add the beer, scallions and brown sugar to a large plastic baggie or a bowl with a lid. Shake or stir until the mixture is fully combined. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade and allow them to sit for at least 30 minutes. (The chicken can marinate for up to 24 hours in this mixture.)

Step 3

Remove the chicken breasts and salt and pepper them again.

Step 4

Prepare a sheet pan by drizzling it with neutral oil. Heat the oven to 375 degrees and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 5

Once the chicken is ready, remove it from the pan and allow it to sit for 5 minutes. Cutting immediately will cause the juices to escape from the chicken breast.
