Description

aka "Dirty clothes" in my house due to a misunderstanding. It is a fantastic baked chicken dish with whole cloves of roasted garlic

Ingredients

  • 1c chopped onion
  • 1c chopped celery
  • 0.25c fresh tarragon leaves
  • 2lb dark meat chicken, bone in and skin on
  • 1c olive oil
  • 0.5c white wine
  • ds salt and pepper to taste
  • 40clv garlic

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425

Arrange onions, celery and tarragon in casserole dish.

arrange chicken pieces over the veggies, skin side up
tuck garlic cloves, removed from head but still in peel, around chicken
drizzle generously with olive oil and white wine
sprinkle with salt and pepper, or in my case, Trocamare

Bake for at least an hour, until chicken is done, skin is crispy, garlic is soft, and your kitchen smells so good you can't stand it. Serve with crusty bread to squeeze garlic on. Fight over the garlic and drippings with your bread. Stink like garlic for days and be happy about it.
