Did someone turn on the heat?

Ingredients:

1/2 cup hot sauce, your preference
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, more to taste
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt, more to taste
1 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons minced garlic
4 boneless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon cooking oil
Ground black pepper, to taste

  5. Transfer chicken breasts to the baking sheet and place into the oven to cook for 5 minutes.
  6. Remove baking sheet from oven. Spoon a small amount of firecracker sauce over chicken and baste. Return to oven and bake for and additional 12-15 minutes, until chicken is thoroughly cooked.
