Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic





3 whole heads of garlic, about 40 cloves


2 (3½ lb.) chickens, cut into eighths


Kosher salt


Freshly ground black pepper


1 Tbsp. unsalted butter


2 Tbsp. good olive oil


3 Tbsp. Cognac, divided


1½ cups dry white wine (I’ve used chix broth before)


1 Tbsp. fresh thyme leaves (1 tsp. dry)


2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour


2 Tbsp. heavy cream





Separate the cloves of garlic and drop them into a pot of boiling water for 60 seconds. Drain and peel garlic; set aside.





Dry the chicken w/ paper towels. Season liberally w/ salt %26amp; pepper on both sides. Heat the butter and oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over med-high heat. In batches, sauté chicken in the fat, skin side down first, until nicely browned, about 3-5 minutes on each side. Turn over w/ spatula or tongs; do not pierce skin w/ fork. If the fat is burning, turn heat down to medium. When a batch is done, transfer to a plate and continue to sauté all the chicken in batches. Remove the last chicken to the plate. Add all the garlic cloves to the pot. Lower heat and sauté for 5-10 minutes, turning often until evenly browned. Add 2 Tbsp. of the cognac and the wine to the garlic, return to a boil, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Return the chicken to the pot with the juice and sprinkle chicken w/ thyme leaves. Cover and simmer over the lowest heat for about 30 minutes, or until chicken is tender.





Remove the chicken to a platter, cover w/ foil to keep warm. In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup of the sauce and the flour, and then whisk this back into the sauce in the pot. Raise the heat, add the remaining Tbsp. of Cognac, and the cream. Boil for 3 minutes. Taste sauce and adjust for salt and pepper to taste; it is important for the sauce to be very flavorful because chicken tends to be bland. Pour the sauce and the garlic cloves over the chicken and serve hot. Reheats well.

season and saute it in a lightly oiled skillet until browned on both sides. pour in a can of cream of mushroom soup over it and a small amount of water. add in some sliced onions, and chopped bell peppers, and a dash of thyme. let it simmer on low with the lid on until tender. swrve this with rice and a dinner salad.
I take a cut-up chicken and season it. I lightly dust it with flour then use a little bit of grease %26amp; fry it a bit. You don't have to fry it all the way. Just get it golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pot, drain the grease leaving about a teaspoon or two. Brown onions and bell pepper. You may add a little more flour to asorb the grease and let that brown a minute. Then return the chicken to the pot add cold water %26amp; bring to a boil. After you bring it to a boil let it simmer awhile. When you're gravy is thick %26amp; your chicken is cooked serve it over rice. If you find your gravy isn't dark you can add a teaspoon of Kitchen Bouquet and stir. Good luck. 2D
