GARLIC ROASTED CHICKEN AND POTATOES
I've been making this recipe for so many years, I can't remember where I got it from. It's really quick to throw together. After fixing it several times, my husband 'discovered' that you were supposed to spread the garlic on the chicken. It's one of his favorites now. This recipe is very easy to adjust up or down. Just make sure your pan is big enough if adjusting up. I usually add more potatoes, since we like them. Serve with a mixed greens salad.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

CRISPY GARLIC BREADCRUMB CHICKEN
While not identical to a pan-fried, breaded cutlet, if you want to eat tender, flavorful chicken with lots of crispy, crunchy bits, then this significantly less-messy method is for you. One of the keys to this technique is to use panko breadcrumbs, which are much larger and more jagged than regular, fine breadcrumbs. This method also allows us to introduce some additional flavor, and moisture, thanks to the 'glue' we use to attach the crumbs.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

- Combine mayonnaise, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Spread 'glue' over the top and sides of the chicken breasts. Spoon over the the breadcrumb mixture. Use a spatula to transfer chicken breasts back to the skillet. Pour chicken broth around the chicken.
- Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a plate and let rest while you make the pan sauce.
- Pour chicken broth and lemon juice into the pan. Bring to a boil over high heat and add balsamic vinegar. Boil until sauce is reduced, about 2 minutes. Strain sauce and spoon around chicken.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cumin seeds, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Spread in a large baking dish and roast until the potatoes begin to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the brown sugar, lemon juice and red pepper flakes. Remove the baking dish from the oven, push the potatoes to the sides and arrange the chicken breasts in the middle. Season the chicken with salt and drizzle with the garlic mixture. Return to the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven; transfer the chicken to a cutting board and slice. Add the cilantro to the baking dish and toss with the potatoes. Serve the chicken with the potatoes and lemon wedges. Drizzle with the pan juices.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Garlic: Use fresh, firm garlic cloves for the best flavor. Avoid using garlic that is sprouting or has green shoots, as it will be less flavorful.
- Crush or Mince Garlic Properly: To release the full flavor and aroma of garlic, crush or mince it finely. You can use a garlic press, a knife, or a microplane grater.
- Use a Variety of Cooking Methods: Garlic can be used in a variety of cooking methods, including sautéing, roasting, baking, and grilling. Each method will produce a slightly different flavor and texture.
- Don't Overcook Garlic: Overcooked garlic can become bitter and lose its flavor. Be careful not to cook garlic over high heat for too long.
- Add Garlic at the Right Time: The timing of adding garlic to a dish is important. If you add it too early, it can burn and become bitter. If you add it too late, it won't have time to develop its full flavor.
- Use Garlic as a Seasoning: Garlic can be used as a seasoning to add flavor to a variety of dishes, including soups, stews, pasta sauces, and stir-fries.
Conclusion:
Garlic is a versatile and flavorful ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. By following these tips, you can learn how to use garlic properly to create delicious and flavorful meals. Experiment with different cooking methods and recipes to find the ones that you enjoy the most. With a little practice, you'll be able to use garlic like a pro!
