2 tbs molasses
2 tsp. worchestershire sauce
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or breast)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
lemon wedges
parsley sprigs

1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a nonreactive dish (or large plastic zip bag) and add chicken. Cover and marinate in refridgerator 1 hour, turning occasionally.
2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees
3. Remove chicken from dish and reserve marinade. arrange chicken in a shallow baking dish or roasting pan coated with cooking spray. Pour reserved marinade over chicken; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4. Bake at 425 degrees for 20 minutes, basting occasionally with marinade. Bake without basting for 20 minutes more or until chicken is done. Serve with lemon wedges and garnish with parsley sprigs.

It's important to baste! It makes the chicken very juicy!!
