Brown Sugar Chicken

Umm 3 ingredients for this busy working mom?  Yes please!  Another Pinterest WIN.  A little zesty for my toddler, but everyone else loved it.  You could reduce the zest by adding in some water or using less seasoning.

Ingredients:
2-3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts (a little bit thicker would be good for this so they don't dry out)
1/2 cup packed brown sugar (or if you are into substitutes, Splenda makes one, just be careful because it is sweeter than the regular stuff)
1 (.7 ounce) packet of dried Italian dressing mix (Simply Organic makes a Gluten Free version- be careful, some of the more common brands are NOT GF)

Directions: 
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a baking dish and set aside.  Rinse and dry your chicken.  Combine the Italian dressing mix and brown sugar and mix well.  Coat the chicken with the mixture and sprinkle any extra over the top.  Cook about 50-60 minutes depending on the thickness of your chicken- turn once and keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn :)
