This Weight Watchers Garlic Chicken Recipe is a favorite for my whole family! It can be so hard to find meals that the whole family will love. This was made on the Weight Watchers My WW Blue plan, and the points will be the same on the purple plan. For the green MyWW plan you will need to add Smartpoints for the chicken. (I have included affiliate links to products I love. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.)
Now as a mom I love how easy this is, basically, no prep work, and the taste is amazing!!! We have crazy nights with soccer and the kid’s schedule, it is amazing how some nights we manage to get dinner on the table. I must say we are going to make this again but with fried rice! It has a taste of Chinese cuisine to it and would have been perfect!!! The recipe for this I followed came from Food.com.

How To Make Weight Watchers Garlic Chicken:
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
Spray a 9X13 pan or sheet pan with non-stick spray, and then the 9X13 pan or sheet pan with foil and then nonstick spray, I have the one pictured below and the handles make it great for removing from the oven if you are clumsy like me!! Plus you can order one on Amazon so you don’t even have to leave the house, order, and then the UPS man is at the door when you use Amazon Prime 2 day delivery! (Don’t have Prime? You NEED for easy online shopping!!)

Now funny story with this I didn’t read through all the comments when I first made this to see the tin foil warning. The brown sugar and the juices burned and ruined my pan completely. Trust me tinfoil and spray under the tin foil too, the foil and sugar can stick as well. See what happened the first time I made this with no foil?
Next lay in your chicken breasts in your baking pan on top of the sprayed tinfoil.
If you are looking for a way to bulk buy chicken breasts in individual wrapping I highly suggest Perdue Farms! I love that they have a package of 15lbs of breasts for a great price!! (see it-> here)

In a small plan warm up your olive oil and add in the minced garlic on med-high heat.
One the oil-garlic mixture is warm add in the brown sugar and cooking into a thick gooey mixture
Pour the garlic mixture over the chicken, use a basting brush to cover the chicken breast completely.
Bake in the oven for about 20-30 minutes until it temps out at 160 degrees and done.
Serve with rice or a side salad!!
This chicken is also so good that I eat it just by itself as well, and the cold chicken is amazing on salads as well!!
On the new Weight Watchers Freestyle Smartpoints plan for Blue and Purple, this is 2 points!! Could be less depending on how you cook it too!
Now you will need to replug with what you deem a serving size and how much your chicken weighs too. For my portion, it was 5 Smartpoints on the My WW Green plan how I cut up our chicken for the meal. I use this ->Here to weight out the chicken before cooking it
This is how my chicken was when I was on Weight Watchers Points Plus value if you are tracking on the old plan.
