Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to 1 cup. Discard thyme. Stir in the butter, lemon juice and remaining pepper. Serve with chicken.

GARLIC-SHERRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Use a sharp knife and poultry shears to divide chicken breasts into 4-6oz, serving pieces. You can get two pieces out of a moderate-sized breast or 3 pieces out of a large one.
• Drain and coarsely chop artichoke hearts.
• Heat butter and olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet that can go into the oven.
• Brown chicken on all sides, browning the skin side first. Remove to a dish that will catch the juices.
• Saute onions and garlic on low-medium until onions are soft and translucent.
• Add mushrooms if using them and cook briefly.
• Add sherry to pan and stir until it has all evaporated.
• Sprinkle flour over the onions and cook as a roux for a minute or two. If there is not enough fat remaining in the pan add a little more butter.
• Slowly add chicken broth, stirring vigorously so as not to create any lumps. Add salt and pepper. Bring to a boil then turn heat down to a simmer.
• Add artichoke hearts, chicken pieces, and chicken juices. Stir in gently.
• Cover and simmer 8-12 minutes or until the chicken is barely cooked and the sauce has thickened slightly. (The sauce will still be quite runny, not thick like gravy).
• Hold in oven at 225F if necessary. Could be held in a crockpot on warm for buffet service.
• I suggest serving over rice or noodles. Also good with crusty bread to sop up the sauce. Your favorite green vegetable will round out the meal nicely.
• Note: If you wish to use boneless, skinless breasts I suggest cooking them until almost done in the browning stage so that they will finish cooking as they sit while you make the sauce, then rewarming them briefly in the sauce immediately before serving.
• Note: If your family prefers dark meat you could use thighs instead of or in addition to breasts but will probably need to pour off excess grease before adding the flour.
• Note: If you want a thicker, more gravy-like sauce increase the flour to achieve your preferred texture.
• Note: This recipe can be made with boneless pork chops instead of chicken if you follow the directions for boneless breasts.
• Variation: Decrease the amount of chicken stock slightly. Add the juice and zest of one lemon and 1 tbs capers.
• Variation: Add 1-2lbs of barely-cooked asparagus tips at the last moment and cook just long enough to heat through.

GARLIC-ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook, skin-side down, until browned, about 5 minutes.
• Separate the heads of garlic into cloves but do not peel. Flip the chicken; add the garlic and rosemary to the skillet and transfer to the oven. Roast until the chicken is cooked through but still moist, 15 to 20 more minutes.
• Place the bread on a platter and top each slice with a chicken breast. Add the vinegar to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Add 3 tablespoons water and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Pour the sauce and garlic over the chicken and bread.
• Tip: You can squeeze the garlic out of its skin and spread on the chicken or bread.

GARLIC ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• As soon as you get the chicken home, salt it inside and out, wrap it and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• When you are ready to cook the chicken, first preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pat the outside of the chicken dry with paper towels. Liberally salt and pepper the inside of the chicken and stuff the cavity with the all the garlic and lemon. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken. Place it in a roasting pan just large enough to hold it and the vegetables. Scatter the onion slices, carrots and potatoes around the chicken. Brush the outside of the chicken with the butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Roast the chicken for 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh. Remove the chicken to a platter and cover with aluminum foil. Place the vegetables back in the oven and continue cooking for an additional 15 minutes.
• When the vegetables are cooked, carve the chicken and place the slices on the platter surrounded by the vegetables. Drizzle some pan juices over the chicken and vegetables.

GARLIC RICE ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine rice, garlic, parsley, thyme, rosemary, black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cayenne in a mixing bowl. Pour in butter. Mix until thoroughly combined. Cover and transfer into a refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly oil an oven-safe skillet or roasting pan.
• Loosen the skin on the top of the chicken near the legs, enough to allow a small rubber spatula to slide between the breast meat and the skin. Slowly push the spatula under the skin on either side of the breastbone, all the way to the front of the chicken, trying not to make the opening near the cavity too large.
• Stuff the chilled rice mixture evenly under the skin, one spoonful at a time, pushing it to the front as you go to get an even layer of rice on either side of the breastbone. Stuff as much as you can fit under the skin without tearing it, smoothing and shaping as you work, and then place the rest of the rice into the cavity.
• Place the chicken into the prepared roasting pan. Tie the legs together with a piece of kitchen string and season the skin with remaining salt.
• Roast in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove to a plate or cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes.
• While chicken is resting, add vinegar to the fat and drippings in the skillet or roasting pan and set it over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil while scraping all the caramelized bits from the bottom of the pan. Boil to reduce slightly, 3 to 5 minutes. Strain if preferred. Serve with sliced chicken, garlic rice, and crispy skin.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wipe the chicken dry with paper towels. Squeeze the lemon over the inside and outside of the chicken.
• Arrange the chicken in a roasting pan. Place the garlic in the water around the chicken. Pour the melted butter and oil over the chicken.
• Roast for 45 minutes to one hour, or until the chicken is cooked, basting frequently during cooking time. The garlic should roast without burning once the water has evaporated. Should the garlic start to brown too fast, add a little more water.
• To serve, arrange chicken on a platter surrounded by garlic and toasted bread. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley. Allow the chicken to rest at room temperature before serving.

SHERRY VINEGAR AND ROASTED CHICKEN SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Cut chicken into small pieces. Spread pieces on a large roasting pan. Roast for 45 minutes or until crisply browned.
• Scrape browned chicken into a stockpot, including any particles that stick to the pan. Cover with two inches of water. Bring stock to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes or so. Stir occasionally to prevent chicken pieces from sticking on the pot. Set aside. When cool, remove top layer of fat.
• Return stock to a large pot, and warm over medium heat. Then, strain two cups of stock into a blender (reserve rest for sauces and soups). On high speed, drizzle in just enough olive oil to make sauce thick. It should barely be moving in blender bowl. Season to taste with sherry vinegar, salt and pepper

BAKED CHICKEN IN PARMESAN AND ROASTED GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Squeeze roasted garlic from the papery peels and mash well.

• Reduce heat to medium. Deglaze pan with sherry.
• Add chicken stock (see note), thyme, and the roasted garlic. Simmer 2 minutes.
• Add milk. Add cream cheese in small blobs.
• Bring to simmer, whisking in the cream cheese until smooth.

• Pour sauce over chicken pieces and return to oven for about 1/2 hour or until chicken thighs are thoroughly cooked.
• Remove chicken to a serving platter. Toss sauce with noodles.
• Serve with a green vegetable (I recommend broccoli or an Italian vegetable mix), or a salad.
• Note: If you don't have homemade chicken stock please use a quality soup base (I like Tones), rather than bullion, which is apt to be too salty when combined with the Parmesan.
• Note: If you want a thicker sauce reduce the chicken stock to 1/2 cup.
