I used boneless chicken thighs, browned and took out, browned up the garlic and then added the chicken back to finish cooking with sauce. Smells delicious! Can't wait to dig in! As for the garlic, I would not buy them from Asian stores especially if they are imported from China (very likely). Not worth the discount imho. Thanks for the inspiration!

It was delicious, soft and flavourful and juicy. The taste was not as intense/overpowering as I thought it might be with all that garlic. Amazing recipe. Definitely bookmarking it.

I made this recipe. We definitely enjoyed it. Funny story though. I got a whole chicken and attempted to cut it into 8 pieces, but I could not, for the life of me, break it apart... you should have seen the sloppy mess on my kitchen counter. How on earth do you break through those bones? Luckily, I had split chicken breast on hand. But I feel guilty for putting that bird, though dead, through such misery! Ha, ha! Hi there!

I've read about this recipe a million times, but never actually made it. I had 3 heads of garlic that I had to finally use up from my winter share of my CSA, so I searched for this recipe and was so glad to see that it wasn't to fussy (other than peeling the garlic, which I found kinda zen!) Every person in my family told me "this is the best meal ever!" including my newly somewhat picky son =). Thanks! This was amazing!!

Great website btw! So, I'm not very good at applying logic to cooking, so this may be a super pathetic question, but can I cook this with just boneless, skinless chicken breasts? It's all I've got in the fridge right now :/ Well, that and some garlic. And wine, of course. This looks delicious. Great website btw!

It works with any kind of garlic -- fresh, not, bruised, not -- and takes about 5 minutes from head to peeled clove (if you're an aggressive shaker). Done and done.

Would using these instead of a whole cut-up chicken work, and would I need to adjust the cooking time? I bought a “grill pack” at Whole Foods the other day and included was 8 chicken drumsticks.
