  • 4. When the Olive Oil is hot, turn heat down to medium to medium-high and add minced garlic to the oil. Let Garlic sauté in the oil for about 1 min, then add Chicken..skin down in the pan.
  • 5. Brown for 15 minutes each side until chicken is golden brown (this locks the flavor into the chicken itself).
