SLOW-COOKER CHICKEN WITH 20 CLOVES OF GARLIC



Slow-Cooker Chicken with 20 Cloves of Garlic image

Developing this recipe -- a riff on the French bistro classic -- taught us a thing or two about how the slow, steady, moist heat of the slow cooker really intensifies flavors. When we tried the traditional 40-clove recipe, the garlic flavor was so strong, we cut the number in half (and we love garlic!). This recipe appears in our cookbook "Martha Stewart's Slow Cooker" (Clarkson Potter).

CHICKEN WITH FORTY CLOVES OF GARLIC



Chicken with Forty Cloves of Garlic image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 whole heads garlic, about 40 cloves
2 (3 1/2-pound) chickens, cut into eighths
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons good olive oil
3 tablespoons Cognac, divided
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Separate the cloves of garlic and drop them into a pot of boiling water for 60 seconds. Drain the garlic and peel. Set aside.
  • Dry the chicken with paper towels. Season liberally with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat the butter and oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. In batches, saute the chicken in the fat, skin side down first, until nicely browned, about 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Turn with tongs or a spatula; you don't want to pierce the skin with a fork. If the fat is burning, turn the heat down to medium. When a batch is done, transfer it to a plate and continue to saute all the chicken in batches. Remove the last chicken to the plate and add all of the garlic to the pot. Lower the heat and saute for 5 to 10 minutes, turning often, until evenly browned. Add 2 tablespoons of the Cognac and the wine, return to a boil, and scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Return the chicken to the pot with the juices and sprinkle with the thyme leaves. Cover and simmer over the lowest heat for about 30 minutes, until all the chicken is done.
  • Remove the chicken to a platter and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of the sauce and the flour and then whisk it back into the sauce in the pot. Raise the heat, add the remaining tablespoon of Cognac and the cream, and boil for 3 minutes. Add salt and pepper, to taste; it should be very flavorful because chicken tends to be bland. Pour the sauce and the garlic over the chicken and serve hot.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN WITH 20 CLOVES OF GARLIC



Slow Cooker Chicken With 20 Cloves of Garlic image

This weeknight-friendly version of the French classic - chicken with 40 cloves of garlic - has half the amount of garlic, because a slow cooker doesn't get quite hot enough to mellow out 40 whole cloves. This dish cooks on high for three hours, but you can lengthen the cook time to six hours using the low heat setting. In that case, cut the garlic further to 15 cloves, because it may taste a bit stronger when cooked at that lower temperature. The beans end up pleasantly soupy, in a sauce rich with chicken juices and wine. The herbs stirred in at the end impart a welcome freshness. This is best served in shallow bowls, with good bread on the side.

Categories     dinner, beans, one pot, poultry, main course

Time 4h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (28-ounce) can or 2 (14-ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained
20 garlic cloves (about 2 heads of garlic), smashed
1/3 cup white wine
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
2 fresh thyme sprigs or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (4 to 6 large thighs)
1/2 lemon, juiced (about 1 tablespoon)
2 scallions, trimmed, white and light green parts thinly sliced
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Combine the beans, garlic, wine, oil, vinegar, thyme and red-pepper flakes in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Season lightly with salt and generously with pepper. Season the chicken thighs all over with salt and pepper, then nestle them in an even layer on top of the beans, skin-side up. Cover and cook on high for 3 hours or low for 6 hours.
  • Line a sheet pan with foil and heat a broiler. Using tongs, remove the chicken thighs from the slow cooker, place them on the foil, skin-side up, and broil for 2 to 4 minutes, rotating once, until the chicken skin is golden and caramelized in spots.
  • Stir the lemon juice, scallions and parsley into the beans. Serve the beans in bowls, and top with the chicken.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large heads garlic
1 cut-up chicken, about 3 pounds
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1/3 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2/3 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Separate head of garlic into individual cloves. Add to boiling water and cook 1 1/2 minutes, or until skin peels off easily. Drain and rinse briefly under cold running water. Peel garlic cloves. Trim any pieces of fat or extra skin from chicken; rinse pieces and pat dry. Season liberally with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken, skin side down, and saute until skin is nicely browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Carefully holding lid against pan, pour off all but a thin film of fat. Turn chicken over and sprinkle onion between pieces. Cover and cook 5 minutes. Pour in wine and bring to a boil, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits on bottom or around sides of pan. Boil until wine is reduced to 2 or 3 tablespoons, about 2 minutes. Scatter garlic around chicken, season with thyme and pour broth into pan. Cover, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer 25 minutes, or until chicken is very tender. Remove chicken and half of garlic cloves to a deep platter or serving dish. Skim fat off sauce in pan. Pour sauce into a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. If sauce is too liquid, pour into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Dissolve cornstarch in 1 tablespoon cold water and stir into sauce. Cook, stirring, 1 minute, until slightly thickened. Season sauce with additional salt and pepper to taste. Pour over chicken and serve.

CHICKEN WITH 40 CLOVES OF GARLIC



Chicken With 40 Cloves of Garlic image

In the two decades after World War II, Jane Stern and Michael Stern told Marian Burros of The Times in 1991, "a nation once known for square meals and the bluenose abstinence of Prohibition fell in love with deluxe food, vintage wine and the joy of cooking." They captured that gourmania in their book of that year, "American Gourmet," and this recipe, for a luxe and amazing casserole of nutmeg-scented chicken and garlic, comes from it. Serve the dish with a baguette or two, and squeeze the buds of garlic out on the bread. Spread the mash like butter and use the bread to mop up the luscious sauce.

Provided by Marian Burros

Categories     dinner, times classics, main course

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2/3 cup olive oil
8 chicken drumsticks
8 chicken thighs
4 celery ribs, cut into 4 inch-long strips
2 cups chopped onion
6 parsley sprigs
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/2 cup dry vermouth
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
dash grated nutmeg
40 cloves garlic, unpeeled
Freshly sliced French bread

Steps:

  • Put the oil in a shallow dish and add the chicken pieces; coat evenly with oil.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • In a heavy 6-quart casserole, combine the celery, onions, parsley and tarragon. Lay the oiled chicken pieces on top. Pour on the vermouth. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and a dash of nutmeg. Tuck the garlic cloves in and around the chicken pieces. Cover the casserole tightly with aluminum foil, then the lid. Bake 90 minutes without removing the lid.
  • Serve chicken, pan juices and garlic cloves with French bread. Diners should squeeze the buds of garlic from their husks onto the bread, then spread the garlic like butter.

Time 2h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 whole chicken
40 cloves garlic
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  • Drain all but 2 tablespoons of liquid from the pan; stir the garlic cloves into the reserved liquid. Return the chicken to the pan; sprinkle the water, lemon juice, salt, thyme, and black pepper over the chicken; cover tightly.
  • Bake the chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 90 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or drumsticks work best for this recipe. They will stay moist and juicy during the long cooking time.
  • Don't skimp on the garlic: The 20 cloves of garlic are what give this dish its signature flavor. Use a variety of sizes and shapes of garlic cloves for a more complex flavor.
  • Roast the garlic first: Roasting the garlic before adding it to the chicken helps to mellow its flavor and make it more digestible.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil is best for this recipe. It has a rich flavor that will complement the garlic and chicken.
  • Cook the chicken low and slow: The chicken should be cooked over low heat for at least an hour, or until it is fall-off-the-bone tender.
  • Serve with a simple side dish: This chicken is so flavorful that it doesn't need much accompaniment. A simple salad or roasted vegetables would be perfect.

Conclusion:

Chicken with 20 Cloves of Garlic is a simple but incredibly flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
