This chicken dish is easy to make and delicious with rice, pasta or mashed potatoes. Don't be afraid of the amount of garlic, it is softened in flavor quite a bit by the cooking and makes for a delicious gravy.

Ingredients
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts, or a whole chicken cut up.
  • 10-12 cloves of garlic, peeled but left whole
  • 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 cups dry white wine
  • 1 14 oz. can of low-sodium chicken broth (or homemade)
  • 6 very large fresh thyme sprigs

Directions
  1. Sprinkle chicken generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in heavy large pot or Dutch Oven over medium-high heat.
  3. Add chicken skin side down, and brown on both sides, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate and cover loosely with foil.
  4. Add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and garlic cloves to pot. Stir occasionally until garlic is golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add wine, broth and thyme; bring to boil. Return chicken to pot. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  5. Transfer chicken to platter. Remove the thyme sprigs from the pot and dispose of them. Smash garlic cloves into sauce with a potato masher or remove and smash them in a mortar and pestle, and add them back to the pot. Add a bit of Wondra or flour while heating and whisking the sauce to make a gravy.
  6. Serve the chicken with rice, mashed potatoes or pasta, pouring the gravy over all.

All that garlic sounds good with mashed potatoes to me. Looks like I know what I am doing this weekend with that chicken in the freezer. Thanks! :)


Love it!! High FIVE from here! Thanks for posting it! :+D


Oh this sounds delicious! Can it be made with skinless chicken breasts?


Yes, Lillian, I'm sure it can!


I made this for dinner last night. The gravy was delicious! Not too garlicky at all. I used a potato masher on the garlic. It mixed in very easily. I used a whole chicken that I skinned so I cooked it about 45 minutes. Very easy! Thank you.
