Chicken with 50 Cloves of Garlic

INGREDIENTS
⅔ cup olive oil
16 chicken legs, any mix of drumsticks and thighs
5 celery stalks, thinly sliced
2 cups onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
1 teaspoon dried tarragon (or thyme)
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
1 cup white wine (or vermouth)
1/4 cup chicken broth
2 ½ teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
50 cloves garlic, approximately 3 bulbs, peeled or unpeeled
Freshly sliced French bread


PREPARATION
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Season chicken with salt and pepper (and nutmeg if using).
  3. Heat a heavy 6-quart casserole in stove and sear the chicken on all sides. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add onions, celery and thyme to pan and saute for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Deglaze pan with the wine/vermouth.   
  5. Lay the chicken pieces on top and pour in any accumulated juices and chicken broth.
  6. Tuck the garlic cloves in and around the chicken pieces. 
  7. Cover the casserole tightly with the lid. Bake 60 minutes without removing the lid.
  8. Remove lid and continue cooking for another 30 minutes (purpose is to crisp the skin, you may increase temperature and cook quicker).
  9. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.
  10. Serve with toasted bread, then spread the garlic like butter.

  1. Thanks To God Almighty for using Doctor Razor's Quick cure for herpes to eradicate my herpes Simplex Virus...I got diagnosed with Herpes On August 19, 2015 and it resulted in a cluster of painful ulcers and many problems while urinating..  My situation almost caused me my marriage because my husband was having pressure coping with his work and my situation.. One morning, I read a testimony on a blog page online, of a natural cure from a Herbalist named Dr Razor who cured a 50 years old retired US Army official and he is now healed from dementia.. I immediately contacted him and I told him of my herpes, he encouraged me not to give up. I administered the natural Healing medication he sent to me and a few weeks later I went to the hospital for a check up and the result was clear.. It's been 4 years now and I am proud to let you know that I am still healthy and living happily with my husband and my 3 kids after the healing. I felt it best that I let you know that if you contact Doctor Razor through his email drrazorherbalhome@gmail.com , you can have a second chance of living again,because he will give you good results.. I never believed in Herbs but Doctor Razor proved to me that Herbs Is a free gift from Nature and Its Importance to Mankind. And as well the effectiveness of Herbs.
