All you Garlic lovers..here are some facts

Nice recipe and sounds good. I will have to try this one since Guacamole is one of my favorites. I haven't had a recipe that I didn't like yet. Thanks for the recipe.

YES! Garlic is so tasty and healthy - I LOVE it! Whenever I stir-fry vegetables, I always brown crushed garlic first then add the vegetables and it tastes so yummy!

This recipe sure sounds good; however, I can't handle jalapeno very well - do you think I can just eliminate the jalapeno from this recipe?

Oh yeah!I like garlic too. It adds a lot of flavour to vegetable fries and so many indian cuisines. I have dry garlic powder and you know what, I make my instant garlic bread just in seconds, I just sprinkle it over the bread toast and serve it with marinara sauce and it doesn't taste bad at all. Its the best cure for cold if combined with black pepper. Hey about your recipie I know, it would one of the nice and healthy chat pata snack for this cold weather.

I love garlic. I'd eat it with everything. And I haven't had a cold in ages. I think it's because I eat so much of the stuff. If I'm cooking pasta I'll always add 3 or 4 cloves of garlic to the sauce. I can never have enough garlic or too much of it.

Has anyone every tried this recipe?

40 Clove of Garlic Chicken

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

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.

Lol I love Garlic to and put them in most of my Dishes as I always find it just tastes better but I have to say I can never smell it on breath is it only other People that can smell it?

I am an avid garlic user. I love the stuff, so vampires beware! LOL There really isn't many dishes I don't use it in. My grandmother told me once, that garlic helps you sleep better at night. It also seems to help repel misquotes. I feed garlic tablets my dog that I buy from the vet.

THank you for the wonderful recipe!

I love garlic as does my family. I use it almost every night in whatever I am making.

I use it slightly crushed, minced, diced, chunked or as a paste depending on my dish.

I love it in dishes containing chicken, beef or pork. Vegetables with garlic are excellent. Soups and stews always have garlic in. We love garlic bread, rolls, biscuits.

Garlic is a wonderful addition to any meal and is awesome for your health.

Thanks for the information. I knew there was a good reason I liked using garlic.

I love garlic! I add it to almost everything. I am particularly fond of garlic mashed potatoes. I like to put garlic in my spaghetti sauce too! You are right that it has a lot of medicinal properties as well. It has been shown to lower cholesterol!
