CHICKEN WITH FORTY CLOVES OF GARLIC
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.

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.

STOVED CHICKEN (CHICKEN CASSEROLE WITH POTATOES, BACON AND ONION
A recipe I found for Scotland at All British Foods.com., posting for ZWT6. Sometimes also called 'stovies' this Scottish recipe derives from the French etouffer, to cook in a closed pot, and dates from the strong Scottish/French links of the seventeenth century. It makes a filling family dish which can safely be left to its own devices; a little extra cooking time will not spoil the flavour.

Steps:
- Heat half of the butter and the oil in a large frying pan and fry the chicken and bacon for 5 minutes, until lightly browned.
- Place a thick layer of potato slices, then onion slices, in the base of a large ovenproof casserole. Season well, add the thyme and dot with half the remaining butter.
- Add the chicken and bacon, season to taste and dot with the remaining butter. Cover with the remaining onions and finally a layer of potatoes. Season and dot with butter. Pour over the stock.
- Cover and bake at 150°C (300°F) mark 2 for about 2 hours, until the chicken is tender and the potatoes are cooked, adding a little more hot stock if necessary.
- Just before serving sprinkle with snipped chives.
Tips:
- Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a more robust flavor than pre-minced or jarred garlic. Look for firm, plump garlic cloves without any signs of sprouting or bruising.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken, make sure to leave enough space between the pieces so that they can brown evenly. Overcrowding the pan will cause the chicken to steam instead of sear.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet: A well-seasoned cast iron skillet will help to create a beautiful sear on the chicken. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a non-stick skillet, but be sure to preheat it over medium-high heat before adding the chicken.
- Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). This will help to prevent foodborne illness.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: Allowing the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving will help to redistribute the juices and make the meat more tender.
Conclusion:
Stove-Top Garlic Chicken is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The combination of garlic, lemon, and herbs creates a flavorful and aromatic dish that is perfect for any occasion. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
