Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 garlic cloves (about 1 head), lightly smashed and peeled
3 fresh thyme sprigs
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (3-lb) chicken, quartered
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened

  • Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 500°F.
  • Cook garlic, thyme, and 3/4 cup oil in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan over low heat, uncovered, until garlic is very tender but not golden, about 25 minutes.
  • While garlic is cooking, pat chicken pieces dry and rub all over with butter and remaining tablespoon oil. Sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Arrange chicken, skin sides up, in a shallow baking pan and roast 20 minutes.

I'm not a fan of garlic, so I omitted the garlic confit. The chicken was still very good.
