This is a classic Provençale-style dish in which the thighs and drumsticks are baked with garlic cloves. The garlic cooks in its own skin, becoming very soft and creamy. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups chopped onion |
1 teaspoon dried tarragon |
6 parsley sprigs |
4 celery stalks, each cut into 3 pieces |
8 chicken thighs (about 3 pounds), skinned |
8 chicken drumsticks (about 2 pounds), skinned |
1/2 cup dry vermouth |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
40 garlic cloves (about 3 heads), unpeeled |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°. 2. Combine first 4 ingredients in a 4-quart casserole or shallow roasting pan. Arrange chicken over vegetables. Drizzle with vermouth; sprinkle with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Nestle garlic around chicken. Cover casserole with foil, and bake at 375° for 1 1/2 hours. 3. carbo rating: 9 |
