1. 1Season the chicken with the salt and pepper and lay on a baking sheet.
2. 2Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for 25-30 minutes.
3. 3While the chicken bakes, pour the grapeseed oil and sesame oil into a pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the ginger and red onions. Cook until the onions turn translucent, approximately 6-8 minutes.
4. 4Add the brown sugar and stir well until it melts.

7. 7Remove from heat.
8. 8Pour the sauce over the chicken, then return the meat to the oven and bake another 10-15 minutes or until juice run clear.
