Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic!

A classic French dish of garlic-flavoured chicken in garlic sauce. Surprisingly gentle and mellow despite its fearsome name.

Notes

This recipe comes from Guardian food writer Felicity Cloake’s “How to Cook the Perfect…” series. The key to this dish is using large heads of fresh garlic – ideally wet garlic from early summer, which becomes sweet and mellow when roasted. If unavailable, look for large heads with generously proportioned cloves rather than small, tightly packed ones.

Serve with something to soak up the delicious juices – good bread, new potatoes or rice all work well, with an undressed green salad on the side.
