Categories     Chicken     Garlic     Poultry     Braise     Sauté     White Wine     Fall     Winter     Birthday     Thyme     Simmer     Bon Appétit

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 3 1/2-pound whole chickens, each cut into 8 pieces
5 whole heads of garlic, cloves separated (about 70), unpeeled
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 cups dry white wine
6 very large fresh thyme sprigs

Steps:

  • Trim excess fat off chicken. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Lightly smash garlic cloves just to flatten slightly, leaving peel attached and cloves as whole as possible.
  • Heat 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, add chicken and cook until brown on all sides, about 12 minutes per batch. Transfer chicken to plate. Add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and garlic to pot. Stir until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add wine and thyme; bring to boil. Return chicken to pot. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, moving chicken pieces from top to bottom every 5 minutes (sauce will not cover chicken), about 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer chicken to platter. Spoon garlic cloves around chicken and drizzle sauce over.
