Ingredients
- 4 pounds chicken legs and thighs
- 4 large heads of garlic (more if small)
- 2 teaspoons olive or canola oil
- 1/2 cup dry wine (substitute broth, tomato juice or water)
- 4 sprigs fresh rosemary, or 2 teaspoons dried
This sounds like a lot of garlic, but it becomes so sweet and mellow with baking that you may well
wish there were more!
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Salt and pepper chicken and arrange in an oven-proof pan or
dish in a single layer.
Take a thin slice off the top of each garlic head, but do not separate
into individual cloves. Brush cut tops with oil and tuck garlic heads in around chicken pieces.
Pour wine over the chicken. Arrange rosemary on top.
Cover with lid or foil and bake for 45
minutes. Remove cover and continue to bake until chicken is very tender and most of the liquid has
evaporated, 15 - 30 minutes more. Add water, if pan is dry or nearly dry.
Serve hot with pan
juices spooned over and garlic heads on the side, so each diner can squeeze garlic pulp onto
