tawny's usual chicken

i make this chicken dish at least 2-3 times a week. i know, sounds repetitive, but the boys really like it, and it's so easy to make. i don't have measurements, but there aren't too many ingredients anyway. just go by taste :)

4 chicken breasts or thighs
whole cloves of garlic
salt
pepper
sugar
dried rosemary
olive oil
butter (optional)

heat a couple of tablespoons of olive oil in a medium saucepan over low-medium heat. add whole garlic cloves and allow to roast. on a plate, season chicken with salt, pepper, sugar, and dried rosemary on one side. place seasoned side down in pan, then season the rest of the chicken with the same seasoning. here's where you will add the butter if you want it to be richer. cook for about 10 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. done!

i usually accompany this dish with roasted green beans.
