Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 kg chicken thigh fillet
1 tablespoon paprika
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 garlic cloves, unpeeled
1/4 cup brandy
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons chopped flat leaf parsley, fresh

Steps:

  • Trim any excess fat from the chicken and cut the thighs into thirds. Combine the paprika with some salt and pepper in a bowl, add the chicken and toss to coat.
  • Heat half the oil in a large frying pan over high heat and cook the garlic for 1-2 minutes until brown. Remove from the pan. Cook the chicken in batches for 5 minutes each batch or until brown.
  • Return all the chicken to the pan, add the brandy, boil for 30 seconds, then add the stock and bay leaf. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the garlic pulp in a mortar and pestle or small bowl. Add the parsley and pound or mix with a fork to form a paste. Stir into the chicken, cover and cook for 10 minutes or until tender.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken turned out tough and the garlic sauce was bland. I'm going to try this recipe again soon, but I'll follow it more carefully this time.

This recipe was a lot of work, but it was worth it. The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the garlic sauce was incredible.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the garlic sauce was delicious. I think next time I'll cook the chicken for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some leftover rotisserie chicken, and it turned out great!

I've made this recipe several times, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is always moist and flavorful, and the garlic sauce is to die for. I like to serve it over rice or pasta.

This Spanish garlic chicken recipe is a keeper! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the garlic sauce was flavorful and addictive. I served it with roasted potatoes and green beans, and it was a hit with my family.
