Chicken and Garlic Stew image

Don't let the name of this fool you - it is elegant enough for dinner guests. I've made several slight revisions over the years. I prefer skinless, boneless chicken breasts for the health value, and I do a single layer in a 'bring to the table' shallow baking dish. Suggestion: Spread the soft garlic cloves on some crusty bread, like butter. The flavor is not overpowering!

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil
50 cloves garlic, peeled
6 chicken legs, halved
½ cup chopped fresh parsley
½ cup chopped celery
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
½ teaspoon ground allspice
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 ½ cups white wine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place olive oil in a heavy oven-safe Dutch oven which can be tightly covered. Add 1/3 of the chicken, garlic, parsley, celery leaves, tarragon, salt, white pepper, allspice, cinnamon and dry white wine. Mix. Repeat two more times.
  • Cover pot tightly and place in preheated oven, cook for about 1 1/4 hours. The chicken will not be brown, but moist and succulent. If desired, serve with crusty bread to mop up the sauce.
