Roasted Garlic Chicken

On February 22, 2006 in Different Dinner Project, Recipes

2 pounds chicken drumlets and wings
2 bulbs garlic
1 medium onion, halved and peeled apart
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 bay leaf
2 sprigs thyme
salt and pepper

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Roast garlic in the oven by wrapping the whole bulb in tinfoil with a little bit of water and allowing it to bake. You'll know it's ready when the smell becomes sweet and the cloves have browned.
  3. Melt the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the chicken and allow to brown, then flip and brown the other side.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low, stir in the onions and garlic and sauté until tender.
  6. Add the bay leaf and thyme and cover. Simmer until chicken is cooked through to center and onions have caramelized, about 20 minutes.
  7. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
