CHICKEN IN GARLIC SAUCE - POLLO AL AJILLO



Chicken in Garlic Sauce - Pollo al Ajillo image

Provided by Daisy Martinez

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 large chicken thighs (about 4 pounds; see Note)
Fine sea or kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup canola oil
10 cloves garlic, sliced
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/2 cup dry sherry
1/2 cup chicken broth, homemade or canned

Steps:

  • Wash the chicken thighs and pat them dry with paper towels. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add as many of the chicken thighs, skin side down, as will fit without touching.
  • Cook until the skin is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Flip the chicken pieces and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 5 minutes more.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and spoon off all but about 2 tablespoons of the fat, leaving all the lovely brown bits behind. Return the pan to low heat, stir in the garlic and thyme and cook until the garlic starts to turn golden, about 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the sherry, increase the heat to medium and bring to a boil. Let it boil a minute or 2, then return the chicken to the pan skin side up. Reduce the heat to low, pour in the chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Cover the pan tightly and cook 20 minutes. Flip the chicken pieces (or rotate them top to bottom if using a smaller pan) and cook until the chicken is very tender, about 20 minutes. Serve hot.
  • Note: If you like a mix of white and dark meat, substitute a 4-pound chicken cut into 10 pieces. Let the thighs, drumsticks, and wings cook in the sauce for 15 minutes before adding the browned breast pieces. If you'd like to use all white meat, cut the breasts in half crosswise, brown them as described above, but let the sauce cook down 10 to 15 minutes before adding the chicken breasts.

CHICKEN WITH GARLIC SAUCE



Chicken with Garlic Sauce image

Categories     Chicken     Garlic     Herb     Poultry     Spring     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large head garlic
a 3- to 4-pound chicken, cut into 8 serving pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup Cognac
3 cupschicken stock *
three 6- to 7-inch-long fresh rosemary sprigs
1/2 lemon
1/2 cup heavy cream
*available at specialty foods shops

Steps:

  • Separate garlic cloves and peel. Pat chicken pieces dry and season with salt and pepper.
  • In a 12-inch flameproof casserole or heavy skillet with a lid heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and brown chicken in batches, without crowding, transferring to a bowl. Pour off fat from casserole or skillet. In casserole or skillet arrange chicken, skin sides up, in one layer. Add Cognac and heat over moderately low heat until warm. Carefully ignite Cognac and heat, shaking casserole or skillet occasionally, until flames have subsided.
  • Add stock, garlic, and rosemary. Squeeze juice from lemon half, discarding any seeds, into chicken mixture and add lemon half. Simmer mixture, covered, 25 minutes, or until breast pieces are just cooked through. Transfer breast pieces with tongs to a deep platter and keep warm, covered. Simmer remaining chicken, covered, 5 to 10 minutes more, or until tender and cooked through, and transfer with tongs to platter.
  • Remove lemon half, squeezing any liquid into casserole or skillet, and discard lemon and rosemary. In a blender purée cooking liquid with garlic (use caution when blending hot liquids) and pour through a sieve into casserole or skillet. Boil liquid until reduced to about 1 cup and stir in cream and salt and pepper to taste. Return chicken to casserole or skillet and simmer until heated through, about 3 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken to platter and pour sauce over it.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cooking methods. Some recipes call for pan-frying the chicken, while others call for baking or grilling. Choosing a variety of cooking methods will help you create different flavors and textures.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will not cook evenly. Make sure to leave enough space between each piece of chicken so that it can cook properly.
  • Use a meat thermometer. The best way to ensure that the chicken is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken breast and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. Letting the chicken rest before serving will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Garlic sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used to enhance the flavor of a variety of chicken dishes. Whether you are pan-frying, baking, or grilling your chicken, adding a garlic sauce will take your dish to the next level. With so many different recipes to choose from, you are sure to find a garlic sauce that you and your family will love.
