Begin by cutting the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they cook evenly and stay tender. Season the pieces generously with salt and pepper.

In a large skillet, pour in about two tablespoons of olive oil and heat it over medium heat.

Once the oil is hot, add the seasoned chicken pieces to the skillet in a single layer. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.

Next, stir in the minced garlic and brown sugar, mixing thoroughly to coat each piece of chicken.

Drizzle in the soy sauce, mixing well to combine all the flavors. Allow the mixture to simmer for another 2-3 minutes.

Once ready, remove the skillet from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve hot over steamed rice or quinoa.
