Time 2h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 whole chicken
40 cloves garlic
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the Dutch oven and brown on all sides in the butter and oil, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the chicken to a cutting board.
  • Drain all but 2 tablespoons of liquid from the pan; stir the garlic cloves into the reserved liquid. Return the chicken to the pan; sprinkle the water, lemon juice, salt, thyme, and black pepper over the chicken; cover tightly.
  • Bake the chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 90 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

This recipe is a bit too garlicky for my taste. I think I'll try halving the amount of garlic next time.

I'm not sure I can handle that much garlic breath, lol.

I'm not sure 40 cloves of garlic is necessary. I think 20 would be enough.

I didn't have 40 cloves of garlic on hand, but I used 25 and it was aún sabrosa.

I was hesitant to use so much garlic, but the result is incredibly flavorful and tender chicken.

This was the hit of our party last weekend! Added a bit more garlic (3 extra cloves) and used shallots instead of onions to make it a bit more elegant. One of my favorite chicken recipes now.
