Everyday Garlic Chicken Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

3 lb Whole chicken
2 tsp Ground ginger
1 Lemon, pricked
24 cl Garlic, peeled
3 cup Chicken broth
1 Freshly ground pepper

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350.

Wash the chicken and pat it dry inside and out. Place the lemon in the
cavity and place the chicken in a small roasting pan. Cut one clove of
garlic in half and rub over the breast skin.

Bake the chicken for 20 minutes; add 1 1/2 cups broth and bake for another
20 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375, add the remaining broth and garlic and
cook for another 30 to 40 minutes, basting every ten minutes. Remove the
chicken from the pan and place it on a platter, breast side down to rest
for 10 to 15 minutes.

Pour the collected juices into a fat-skimming cup and defat. With a fork,
mash the garlic. Place the garlic and defatted juices back in the roasting
pan. Over medium-high heat, reduce the juices by half, stirring frequently.
Strain if you desire a smoother sauce. Carve the chicken and pass the sauce
at the table.

"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?"
